On second, third, and fourth look.  If you can find the other family members names I think that you might find that the three people to the right are the siblings of the bride (she should be the one with the flower crown).  And the two on the left should be siblings of the groom.  The four on the right have a very similar looking nose; quite a distinct family trait I think.  The two men on the left look related to me as does the woman on the left.

You may well be right about the siblings, I know nothing of my grandmothers family despite inheriting this and many pictures like it,

I concentrated on my own Surname to the exclusion of other branches Im now catching up. The help here is fantastic

I did an ancestry.com search and it pulled up a lot of records but my US subscription won't let me access them.  I think you will be able to find the siblings name and figure out who is who by looking at their ages in the records and how old they look in the photos relative to the bridal couple.  Also, by linking to the siblings, you might find that they have profiles on this or other platforms and you may be able to recognize the older siblings photos to their younger selves.  The bride's photo on her WT profile certainly looks like an older version of the bride.

Answer 4

I really love this beautiful wedding photo. So different than the pictures you see today of the wedding party. It is very casual with everyone in a relaxing moment.

The beautiful bride with her lovely veil. It appears that she has fresh flowers in her hair, and the veil is very long.

The little girl that is sitting with her long blonde hair flowing, looks adorable with her white socks and shoes.

Everyone is staring off into the distance as if they don't have a care in the world.

The props and the backdrop that they used are stunning - natural wood, as was natural for that period.

Would you guess that the wedding party is all related? I think the bride is with her two sisters and brother, and the groom is with his sister and brother. Close family resemblance.

Thank you for sharing this special moment in the lives of Vernon and Muriel's wedding.

God Bless!
