Default "The" Question - B/W or Color...?

Got this shot at a wedding we worked today. I really like both, but what do you think? Black and white? Color? Help me decide.

Thanks in advance.

I usually go for the B&W but I think I like this one in color.

I love B&W shots, but going back and forth looking, I say the color fits this particular image best.

I also generally prefer BW, but without a doubt like the color version of this photo. I would offer the couple both as well, because both are strong.

Man, I'm still torn, but thanks everyone! I think I will include both versions.

I think you should first try to bring out some detail in the dress and veil.
