As regards Licences/Bonds.

Some Counties are on various websites.

I did look at The Wiltshire Family History website - who do have a surname list of Licences/Bonds.  Couldn't see Nicholls etc.

Sometimes the couple got the Licences in another County.  Perhaps another Contributor can advise you.  A copy must be 'somewhere' and it really would be helpful in your research.  Normally Banns had to read in the Church for some weeks, this was a speedy way round or to marry in another County.

Can see they married by Licence.  A Licence and also a (Bond, which is required) should give more details of their ages, occupations etc.  All Gloucestershire Licences have been transcribed by The Forest of Dean Family History Forum and these are invaluable. 

I’ve got a copy Wiltshire Bond when my x Grandparents married in Wootton Bassett.
