Use the architecture at more than one scale.
The opening black and white portrait uses a pointed window to frame the bride. The wider ceremony image shows the brick walls, windows and seated guests. Together they describe a person and the space around the ceremony.
I would confirm which portrait areas and ceremony viewpoints are available, then plan time for a quiet individual portrait as well as the couple and groups. The aim is to make room for those photographs without interrupting the service.

Summary
Photographing Kaia and Eric at this beautiful venue is an absolute privilege. I got their getting ready, detailed shots, family portraits, ceremony, reception, and a sparkler exit.
Lighting Challenges
There are a few times when the lighting conditions aren't ideal to photograph. One of them was the mens getting ready area. There were a few LED light bulbs on the ceiling, definitely not the best. We were in the basement for both the bride and the grooms so not much natural light coming in the room.
