These images look really beautiful. Well done, I must say.

Here's the little improvements (if any) that I might suggest:

1. contrast - it took me a couple seconds to distinguish the flowers from the paper surrounding it.
2. Absolutely gorgeous. Perhaps straighten the image so the window is level?
3. Not sure of the point - from this angle, it looks like fancy lace on the draperies??
4. Another great capture - nothing to improve IMHO.
5. The ring is just a little off angle - if that was the focus of this image.
6. wow - beautiful image.
7. really minor thing about the sunshine on her face - possibly remove the "hot" spots on her face? That's the problem with mixed lighting, and I had that while shooting my first wedding.
8. Fun, playful image - just wondering about the lower right corner foreground (flare?)?
9. Great story - love the images.
10. Gorgeous use of black and white - not sure if you could accentuate the tear to make it just a little bit more visible.
11 & 12 - Simply great images. Nothing to do with them...but sit back and admire them.

I'll remember this if I find myself in need of a second photographer in the South Bay.

13. Beautiful image - tea ceremony?
14. Love the creative use of the shoes to avoid the reflection of the photographer in the vase. One little tiny thing - the pillows are askew - one up flush with the wall, the other not...not sure if that was intentional.
15. Simply WOW - I have to wonder, is this a single capture, or a burst mode image?
16. The foreground blur is distracting - takes away from what would otherwise be a great image. I'd also lighten the image slightly (about 10%) in order to make the color just a tiny bit brighter.
