Thank you Ulrich, this translation is most helpful. One question please; the bride's surname is Schneider? and her father's last name is Schmidt? Should I check on her parent's marriage?

Yes, the father's name looks like Schmidt to me. But the image is not really sharp, and the same letters in Schneider and Schmidt are strangely enough written differently. It would certainly be good to have another source for confirmation. Do you have the birth record of Luise Charlotte?
