There should be no differences between the details for the marriage you have found already and a copy from the Registry office or the GRO. What you have found on Ancestry would be the original source of the marriage and anything you order from the District Registrars office or the GRO at Southport would be a copy of that entry you already have found, from the GRO it would be a copy of a copy of a copy of the original. What you have is the original source with the original signatures of the Bride and Groom and their witnesses. The copies obtained from other sources would not have those original signatures but copies of them. Why waste money on a copy when you have the original already? For marriages that take place in a Church The Vicar makes our and sends a copy of that parish register entry of marriage to the District Registrars office who then make a further copy to send on to the General Register Office. The church keeps the original register. This is why if you wanted to order a copy of a marriage entry from the District Registry office they always need to know which church the marriage took place in before they can begin to look through their registers. It is different with Births and deaths because someone has to go to the District Registry office to register a birth or death directly to the Registrar. But marriages in Churches are written up in the first instance by the vicar/priest conducting the marriage.
