Hello Marilyn Shropshire does not have the BMD indexes like the Cheshire BMD. I would suggest that your best way of buying a marriage certificate is through the General Register office at http://www.gro.gov.uk/gro/content/ then click Ordering certificates online at the bottom of the page. You will be able to use the reference number you have found online and also pay by credit card which will be much more convenient for you.

Yes you can order certificates on line by visiting: <http://www.shropshire.gov.uk/registrar.nsf/open/39D35A88B90FA2F2802570F1005 13442> However marriage records are distributed through many tens of registers for each year, with different registers for every church as well as a civil register. Because of this it is often easier to obtain marriage certificates centrally from the GRO, rather than from local offices - unless you know exactly where a marriage took place.
