The parish referred to is usually that where the person is resident at that time, so you man may have been resident in Buckland, but is does not necessarily mean her was born there.
I have several examples in my tree, where one of the couple are said to be of a certain parish, but their baptisms occur in a different county.

In Somerset, West Buckland & Buckland St Mary sometimes get shortened to just Buckland - is there any other possible parish near to the marriage that at least has Buckland as part of the name?

As Jebber said you are of the parish you reside in for example I lived for several years in the Welsh parish where I married my banns were for "Spinster of this parish" but I was born and baptised 300 miles away across the English border. It isn't only a modern problem one ancestor born in oxfordshire married in Worcestershire back in 1873 and another also born N Oxfordshire married in Birmingham in 1849.

There could be several reasons why he has changed parish if he was from a poor family for example he may have been apprenticed out side his parish such apprenticeships were favoured by the poor law commissioners as it prevented settlement and therefore potential expense to the parish. You had to be resident and work for one master for a full year to be settled and subject to the parish charities and so on. For the same reason many ag labs can be found in different places for each child's baptism their contracts rarely ran for a full year closing at 11 months. You find interestung settlement examinations in Parish chests when you know which parish you want. I have some examples on me web site under Parish Chest Settlements for my ancestors.

If they were married by Banns then the banns have to be called in the parish of residence of both parties and those will be the parishes recorded for the marriage. For marriage by licence they should also be the parishes of residence.

(There are at least two places called Buckland in Hampshire too... and I imagine in a lot of other counties as well)
