The first set (engagement) ... subject composition is getting very good, though I think there's too many shots where the couple are a small percentage of the shot (too much background) and too many of basically the same image. Also, color temps vary all over the board. It's fine for color to be off in the sun (as there will normally be a yellow tint to things), especially near sandy soils, but even in shaded ares the skin colors vary too much and need to be corrected to a common color in post. Focus also is still off on some of the shots, but is getting better overall. Same with making sure background objects with straight lines stay straight in the picture (unless going for effect) .. getting better there as well. I think some of the images would benefit from a little fill lighting and highlighting in post-processing.
Second set (quince) still really needs more light for the pictures. The image composition is fine, but many are dark and you can tell ISO is way up. The 430 on the camera should be enough. Maybe the metering is set incorrectly?
Also, for posed table shots, she need to close down the aperture to get everyone in focus, which unfortunately calls for more light still. The focus from the 24-105 just seems really soft, even the images in focus. Maybe she should try a 50mm 1.4 prime lens .. my go to indoor lens when I have minimal lighting.
