Re: your original query - the record offices don't have certificates, just parish records. However, after 1837 the parish marriage register and marriage certs both have the same details. If you know when the marriage took place (usually the year is required) and where (which parish and/or church) then yes, most record offices will do you one free look-up if you ring, write or email them.
