found a possible marriage record on the familysearch Irish Civil index at : http://pilot.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html#c=1408347;p=2;t=searchable
Name: Bridget Oakes
Reg dist: Wexford
Record type: Marriage
year: Apr - Jun 1920
Vol. : 4 / Pg.: 435
There's only one other Bridget Oakes marriage that I found that fits the timeframe (1911 - 1928) and that marriage took place in Dundalk
There does not seem to be matching record for Laurence. Kavanagh can be indexed as Cavanagh, Cavanaugh etc... so maybe trying variations would confirm the match. If that Bridget marriage record looks possible then it might be worth the gamble to order that cert and see if the details fit.

KAVANAGH, PARTICK/PATRICK. Rank: Private. Regiment or Service: Irish Guards. Unit; 1st Bn. Date of Death: 06-November-1914 Age at Death, 24. Service No: 3509. Born in Kilanerin, Co Wexford. Enlisted in Dublin while living in Tomcoyle, Co Wexford. Killed in Action. Supplementary information; Son of John and Briget Kavanagh of Tomcoyle, Kilanerin, Gorey, Co. Wexford. From an article in the Echo, 1915; Durning the week the War Office notified Mr John Kavanagh, Tomcoyle, Kilanerin, that no trace had yet been found as to the whereabouts of his son, Patrick Kavanagh, who was missing for some months past.
The War Office stated that he could not be discovered in any of the German prisoners camps and therefore presumed his death. The keenest sympathy is felt through the locality with Mr Kavanagh on his affliction. His son, who was a Private in the Irish Guards, was a young man of splendid physique and was extremely popular with all classes in the district. From an article in the Enniscorthy Guardian and the People newspaper; Patrick Kavanagh, 2st Battalion, Irish Guards, killed in action at Ypres on 6th November 1914, was the fourth son of John and Brigid Kavanagh, Seaview, Tomcoyle, Kilanerin, and was aged 22 years. Some years ago he held an important position in Dublin, and subsequently joined the Irish Guards, in which he spent three years.
Returning to his native place, he took a very active part in the volunteer question, and he was instrumental in starting a branch of the movement in Kilanerin and Pallas, and he certainly, while he was in charge of them, brought them to a good state of efficiency. At the outbreak of the war, he being in the reserve, he was called to his old Regiment, and was sent straight to the front after a few months training. He had been through several engagements, and came clear of all, but came by his death from shell fire at the battle of Ypres on the above date.
His parents, who thought that he was either in hospital or a prisoner of war in Germany, not hearing from him, were much startled on getting the sad news on Saturday morning, the 10th inst, from the proper authorities, that he had been killed in action as far back as the 6th of November last. Grave or Memorial Reference: He has no known grave but is listed on Panel 11 on the Ypres ( Menin Gate ) Memorial in Belgium.
KAVANAGH, PATRICK. Rank: Seaman. Regiment or Service: Royal Naval Reserve. Unit: H. M. S. "Goliath. " Age at Death: 23. Date of Death: 13-May-1915. Service No: 5729A. Supplementary information; Son of Patrick and Mary Kavanagh of Kildermott, Ballymoney, Gorey, Co. Wexford. H. M. S. "Goliath" was sunk by three torpedoes from German destroyer ‘Muvanet-I-Milet’, she blew up and capsized immediately taking 570 of her 750 crew including the Captain to a watery grave. Grave or Memorial Reference: 8. Memorial: Plymouth Naval Memorial UK.
