HELP! Advice please re tracing wedding.

Is there any way I can find more information about a wedding in Llandilofawr in OND 1931?

I am trying to find a marriage between a Rees Griffiths and probably a Blodwen.

RG was born in Cwmtwrch, Ystradgynlais but may have been living in the Brynaman area, and Blodwen was believed to be from E Carms.

I can find no record of a likely wedding except for a Rhys Griffiths and Blodwen Evans, Llandilofawr 1931.

As this may well not be the correct Rees G, I'd like to find out a bit more to eliminate it.

Is there some way I can find out more without getting the cert? eg local records etc??

I live nearby so I can visit anywhere in Llandilofawr if necessary.

I will be really, really grateful for any help, advice or suggestions.

Thank you!!

Alan

Thanks for the reply, Shirl.
They would only cover weddings there though, I presume(?).
Would records be available anywhere else I wonder?
