While I am mostly in agreement with this grading scheme there are obviously certain "criteria" that they are failing to consider in their appraisal of the couples. This is actually a tough one to call - especially since both were married by judges... I would say that the first couple are the actual winners.
the second couple is cuter though, that has to be good for a few extra points
