On the parish register entry I am looking at it only names Edward & Hester.
(They didn’t have marriage certificates in 1717)
Is it perhaps a marriage licence/bond?

Ah yes I think your right as it's a lovely certificate not a written record on a register.

Not that spelling is of huge importance, but the original image says “Wright” but whoever made up that transcription has written “Right”, which is not right.  ;D

It’s always best to look at the originals if possible.

And I think the vicar/Rector was named Stephen Philips?
Am willing to be corrected on that.  See register at end of 1716 & 1717

Thank you both, I'll figure it out if it kills me.   :)  I feel like the dots can be connected and all you're feedback has been very helpful.
