That would also make her skin go dark and accentuate the small wrinkles around her eyes and mouth. A yellow filter would probably be best here, as it would also make the red roses more visible against the dark suit of the groom.

GranTurInj: what PP did you do to convert to B&W? The red roses of the groom should not blend in with the green of the leaves like that.
