I can't seem to make up my mind where I should crop this image. I was thinking about only putting the couple in the crop and editing out distractions, but maybe I should leave more in? Please show me your thoughts.

I'd crop from left to just past her flowers so she's on the very right of the image, but I didn't try it out.

I'd probably go further and crop out the bridesmaid too, so it's just bride and groom. The bridesmaid's expression has got lots of character, but as was noted by MagicallyDelicious, she doesn't look happy. You could start a big family row if you're not careful!

Thanks guys.

As for the color and contrast, I haven't got to that yet, this image was converted from RAW with nothing done to it.
