Excellent professional looking job. I'm sure that
they are well pleased. The only thing that looked
odd was showing the cake after cutting it?

I'm sure they'll be delighted with them.
However, some tips:
Never let men put their hands on someone's shoulders, not only does it look like a bunch of bananas, it implies some sort of ownership or control.
Never let men have their hands in front of their trousers, they look like they are having a pee.
Take great care with exposure, on youtube it looks like you've blown the highlights on the dress. Easiest way to avoid this is by taking an incident reading with a separate meter.
Never let anyone stand square-on to camera, it isn't flattering. 30 deg. is good. Get the man to put is hand in the small of his partner's back and turn them to face each other slightly.
You had plenty of space so you could have done things like have the couple in MCU in FG and the rest of the bridal party in the BG slightly OOF

Fired many shots. Didn't kill anything.

I didn't know whether to mention that or not! I call it "the fig leaf pose"

Well done, I think you did an admirable job especially considering it was (I assume) your first time doing a wedding!
