I have been looking at Marriage Certificate Tutorials and Googling and am still confused
When a couple is married by Superintendent Registrar's Certificate, does that certificate exist, in the same way that a licence exists where a marriage is by licence? - and why would the couple not simply get married by licence?
Assuming I have the right couple, the family story is that the Vicar advised the bride-to-be not to go ahead with the wedding. So it seems odd (at least to me!) that the Superintendent Registrar should then issue a certificate, and the Vicar then proceed to conduct the marriage ceremony (C of E).
(BTW this is nothing to do with the H.W. Wicks saga - it is possibly my other set of grandparents!) :D
