Whatever is closest to us appears larger to our eyes. This is true with the naked eye as well as with the camera. So if we have a larger bride, and a thinner groom, how about posing him slightly in front of her. This will hide some of her bulk (because his body is partially obstructing hers) and since he is closer he will appear slightly larger.
Unfortunately bridal gowns make nearly every bride look heavier that what she really is, and if she is large breasted this will also make her appear larger. If you do head and shoulders thru 1/2 length images rather that full length images it is easier to pose him in front of her and make it look more believable. Usually in full length images we see all of her dress (or nearly so) and all of his tuxedo so hiding her behind him in full length images make look rather strange.
