Need help getting strange grey out of 100 year old photo

Hello all,
I am hoping someone can help me. What I have is a photo of my grandparents, a century old, it is very dear to my family as it is the only photo of their wedding and we just recently discovered it.

You will be able to view and download the entire file at the following URL (since this site only allows 100kb files):
armenianancestry.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=30&t=1110

The goal is outlined in the above link but to recap:
1. Remove greyish / silver color
2. Adjust black color (for example: so that groom's hair shows up as something other than a chunk of dark color).
3. Fix Blemishes

I am a newbie to Photoshop so I'm gonna need some pointers on goals 1 & 2. Goal 3 shouldn't be too hard since I've figured out the stamp / clone feature...

Any advice you could give would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
Hovik
