Aberdeenshire / Bannerman, Aberdeen before 1794

I'm trying to find any nugget of information about anyone mentioned in the attached marriage in 1794 Aberdeen. The William Smith mentioned I believe was a glazier and burgess of Aberdeen, but I am trying to establish whether the Alexander Bannerman mentioned, could be the builder/mason of 'Bannerman's Bridge' fame. Certainly the history of the Smith family centres around the Marischal Street area. I did a quick search on Scotland's People and, without any other criteria being entered, the only Alexander Bannerman that it might be was one who died in Oldmachar in 1775, which would fit with him being deceased at the time of the 1794 marriage. Any clues as to Alexander, James Buchan, shipbuilder (could be Hall & Buchan??) or John Gordon the painter, would be a great result! Thank you.
