The lack of emotion at left and right in this photos lead us to his tears. Their solemnity act as partner to his transparency and prompt us to a shared reverence. Thus, the image leads us to respect for the moment.

I thought the angle that the photographer chose on this picture really worked. The bride's expression is framed perfectly within the arms. Good light and color balance.

The highlights of flair provide additional flair to an image that was already built on a foundation of flair. But, the photographer has properly composed the image so the burst of light during a toast serves to highlight and accentuate an already lovely moment.
