p.1 #2 · One picture from my third wedding shoot for criticism
Good depth to the photo.
While I love the B&W, I think you lose some of the focus on the couple because they are almost lost in all the texture. If it was color, they would likely stand out more

Here it is in color, personally i preferred the B&W, but i must agree in hindsight the couple is a bit lost in the scene in the B&W conversion.

I would completely crop the building out of the left side of the photo. IMO it's to big and to bright and it's the first thing I look at..more so in the B&W but it still I think it would look better without it. Maybe a vertical crop instead? Then do what Ca5 said and burn down the surroundings a bit

When I looked at the original image, I noticed too much clutter, a dark tree in the middle which is overbearing, and the real subject too small and lost in contrast.
The advice above is right on, as is BGP1's crop. If you wan to keep this in B&W, you will need to play with tones and selective exposure to emphasis the couple as the subject. Also it will perhaps be better to flip the picture so that subject is closer to the left (where westerner's eyes go first). Here is my rendition.
