My grandparents wedding photo is very similar to this in the way the bride/s are dressed and they were married in 1925. I also think that it looks like a double wedding but my photo had the bridesmaids in similar suits to the bride and with equally big bouquets.

I would suggest the lady on the left is the bride as the lady to the right has different flowers ? I have wedding photos in this era and many ladies wore plain dresses or their best suit with a corsage or a pretty hat.Bridesmaids back then also seemed to have huge bouquets as well as the bride.
