I'm looking for help to read a fuzzy marriage record. https://www.ancestry.com/imageviewer/collect
Specifically, the groom's profession, and the bride's father's profession.
Is the bride's residence, "Ann's Place" significant?
Thanks for any deciphering and background you can give me.

I read "Carrier" for the bride's father's occupation. The groom's reads "Royal Sapper and Miner" See https://www.google.co.uk/search?ei=xs9IYLu6Dcu8gQagxbgY&q=royal+sappers+and+miners&oq=royal+sapper&gs_lcp=Cgdnd3Mtd2l6EAEYADICCAAyAggAMgYIABAWEB4yBggAEBYQHjIGCAAQFhAeMggIABAWEAoQHjIGCAAQFhAeMgYIABAWEB4yBggAEBYQHjIGCAAQFhAeOhEIABCwAxCKAxC3AxDUAxDlAjoFCAAQsAM6BAgAEEM6BAgAEAo6BQgAELEDOggILhDHARCvAToFCAAQyQNQkasDWN67A2Cj7ANoAXACeACAAbYBiAGNCpIBAzMuN5gBAKABAaoBB2d3cy13aXrIAQm4AQLAAQE&sclient=gws-wiz for explanation).
"Ann's Place" is the bride's place of residence at the time of the marriage.
The main reference I can find to "Ann's Place" is as an address in the Hoxton area of east London. (See https://londonwiki.co.uk/streets1832/Annsplace.shtml). There was possibly another address of this name in the Chelsea area, or another part of London. See https://www.maps.thehunthouse.com/Streets/New_to_Old_Abolished_London_Street_Names.htm and use "FIND (on this page)" to see possible alternatives.

Looks like Brides father a Currier or carrier
groom ? Royal gaffer miner ? Royal saffer
