Agree late Edwardian-early teens.
I don't think a wedding photo as even in the absence
of wedding attire most couples marked the moment with
corsages at least also I would expect her to be showing her wedding ring.
The scroll might indicate some sort of celebratory event which
has prompted a photo.

In my Maternal Grandparents wedding photo taken in 1906, neither are wearing or holding flowers and my Grandma isn't displaying her wedding ring.

In contrast with Treetotal's grandparents' marriage photograph, here are my grandparents married in 1908.

And mine - Wilfrid was a Tailor, his father was a Silk Dresser, and Maria's father was a Boot and Shoemaker.  1901 census shows Maria as a Tailoress, so that might have something to do with the wedding outfits.  8)

Convinced it is a Studio ... there is no Depth to the background - I suggest a Screen, look at the black line behind his feet and her dress.
cheers, Ian

Taking your point, Ian, about a studio photograph, I'm now very dubious about the wonderful bouquet my grandmother was holding  :-\  It might not have been hers  :'(

What you are seeing is a photographer's backdrop, according to a book I have read, some photographers had more than one backdrop to suit the occasion. You can clearly see the fold at the bottom where it meets the ground.
BB, the bouquet would have been her own, her husbands buttonhole also. Although photographers often had props, I doubt that flowers would have been provided.
