A person should have an opinion on everything, It becomes tact whether you reveal that opinion or not.

Re: Hello
Hello Andy and welcome
Births and Deaths are registered, so sorry, there is only one way to get the details and that's from the local or national Register office. Don't buy them through a third party, this will cost you a lot more.
Marriages, if they took place in a Register Office, will cost the same, but marriages in a church might be lodged, as Peter says, with the local archives, usually costing about 50 pence for a copy, but you do have to know the church. If you ask these local archives to send you a copy, it will probably cost you about £10.00 - they usually charge for their time.
You can also look for Baptisms and Buriels if you have access to the local archive.
