I have been looking for a marriage for a William Budden (born 1744) in Dorset after finding a gravestone image showing that he had a second wife Susanna. I did a search using the card catalogue set to Dorset marriages (see attachment) It returned 2 documents for the marriage. With the difference in dates I thought one would be the banns and the later one the marriage, but on opening them I found they both were for a marriage. I have found 2 records before in different formats for the same person, but the dates have always matched.
Is this just an error, perhaps a deferment of the marriage or is the earlier one in fact the banns.
Any help would be appreciated.

A useful site for Dorset records; not just baptisms, marriages and burials.
