I'm not sure what kind of CC you're looking for, but I'll go with an overall and try to keep in mind that you may have been a guest at a wedding. Overall, it's well lit, well exposed, and maybe for your situation best composition for your angle. You might get more critique if you'd post up what your settings were.

Couple of things I can tell: You used a flash (flat light), and your DOF is deep which means either you were on P mode or Tv.
What this means is that your background can get really distracting. Especially with the people standing in the background signing the guest log, and the other photographer standing behind the flowergirls and ring bearer. A smaller aperture and using the ambient light in the church might help.

When you get the technicals down, then you'll want to start working on the creative. Waiting for specific moments that have your subject either connecting with the camera or doing something to tell a story.

Again, I think that you have your exposure and light down, next you'll want to work on is isolating your subjects from other distractions in the frame. Good job.
