Default "Come Grow Old With Me"

I'm a beginner and this picture was my best friends ,daughter's wedding.I edited this
picture to B/W and added the wording and soft glow.I felt it turned out pretty good.Can you
tell me what you think? This phrase "Come Grow Old With Me,The Best Is Yet To Be",was
how he proposed to her.

I'm torn between appreciation for the couple and trying to read the words I'm afraid.

Thanks for your comment. When the picture is enlarged it looks almost 3D,and the phrase was how
he proposed.

I think the words are quite distracting. It really looks like the couple are somewhere in there as well. IMHO you'll get a more powerful image when you just put the words in once.

The background might be somewhat distracting to some but from a commercial point of view for wedding photographers I think you found something that will sell.

All in all it is a good photo (IMHO).

It sounds very romantic and I like the photo and what you have done with it.
