I really like the shot of the little girl...great capture of her expression. I think the background was handled very well!
For me, the background in the picture of the pride is too sharp and in focus. My eyes tend to go to the bright sky instead of staying on her.

The little girl is adorable, and that's a very nice picture of her.
The second picture, of the bride, not so much. Looks like you've run afoul of a similar principle to what I've discovered trying and learning to take boudoir/pinup style pictures of my wife, viz., that it is very unflattering to photograph a woman from an angle where her hips/legs/feet are more toward the camera than her head/shoulders. It makes her hips/butt look fat. Her figure would have looked much better, with a higher camera angle; and that would also have helped prevent the lower part of her face from being hidden by her shoulder.
