I'm in agreement with Ron and Spyglass on the bride and the veil, that's a winner. The first shot in this series with the selective color is very effective too, although it's not clear that this is from a wedding. Very nice series. Love to see more.

Traditional posed wedding shots look like posed shots. "Now smile." While they are more technically correct than your approach, they lack the expressions and interactions between participants that really captures the essence of the event. I love your approach and most like the shot of the parents lifting the bride's veil. Some shots, however, look like snapshots.
From what I understand, the biggest technical challenge of wedding photography is lighting and exposure values. That's all things one can learn, but the eye you have for creative compositions can't be taught.
If you are doing this for a living, you may consider upgrading to a K5 (for much greater DR) and a better flash.

Thanks for the advise and comments. Will keep to look to improve further

I like the shot on the stairway, Jason.
