agree  Sheila Wilson: Doesn't need a capital "B". However, the text seems to contain a lot of capitals that aren't necessary but aren't 100% wrong either, so you might prefer "Bridal Couple".

neutral  philgoddard: I find this slightly odd sounding, given that bridal refers to the woman. You could just say "the couple".

  -> In the USA, we also use 'the bridal party' usually including the best man, maiden of honor and all the groomsmen and bridesmaids. 'The couple' could refer to mom and dad of either bride or groom ...

agree  AllegroTrans: It exists, but there are better ways of saying it imo, e.g. the newlyweds
