If you look at the fabric banners on either side of the balconies they seem to be held up in the middle by wooden crests - maybe commemerating something or with names on them?

Sorry to be pedantic, but I have to mention again the top centre of the 'stage', where there is definitely the outline of a man's face with laurel branches each side. This may be a big clue, if we could only figure out who he could be and what it means!
As for the bride, I know that in the past women would wear their Sunday Best rather than the white meringue, but in the period we are discussing, and with the fairly grand affair pictured, I would have expected the bride to be in some sort of wedding dress and to be easily identifiable.
By the way, I'm with the Hall theory now, too....

I've just had another thought and edited into my post above going the same route as you
