Answered: Translation Help with Marriage Record (Bertemes and Kremer)
Since most of the information in this document is handwritten, I am not able to read it.
I believe this is the 2nd marriage of my 2nd great-grandfather, Michel Bertemes. His 1st wife was Maria Metzen, and is 2nd wife is Marie Catherine Kremer (not 100% sure of the name).
The image is attached.
Thanks,
Joan

Hello @JoanCuster
here comes my translation:
On 22 February 1873, 6 p.m. appeared before us, Victor Simonis, mayor and civil registrar of the community Asselborn, district of Klerf in the Grand Duchy of Luxemburg, Michel Bertemes, railway official, 36 years old, born at Ulflingen read Asselborn on 20 January 1837, residing at Ulflingen, son of legal age of Johann Bertemes, deceased at Asselborn on 22 January 1840 and of Gertrud Heinen, deceased at Weiswampach on 31 March 1852, widower from the first marriage with Maria Metzen, deceased at Ulflingen on 19 July 1871. The parties and witnesses have declared that also the grandparents are deceased, with unknown date and place. The certificate lit.L.L. can be found with the certificate of the first marriage, which has been enacted at Weiswampach, the other certificates are enclosed.
and Maria Katharina Kremer, without occupation, 32 years old, born at Bivisch in this community on 16 September 1840, residing at said Bivisch, daughter of legal age of Nikolaus Kremer, slate roofer, 76 years old, who is present and has agreed to the marriage of his daughter, and of Anna Maria Holler, deceased at Bivisch on 26 December 1869, as can be seen from the death certificates of this community.
Who have asked us to proceed with the marriage they have agreed to and for which the proclamations have be made on the Sundays, the 9th and 16th of the present month February in our community and in Niederbesslingen.
Since no objection to the proposed marriage has been announced to us, we grant their request; and after having read aloud all the above-mentioned acts and the 6th chapter of the Civil Code, entitled On Marriage, we asked the groom and the bride if they wanted to take each other as man and wife; since both responded each for himself and affirmatively, so we declare in the name of the law that Michel Bertemes and Maria Katharina Kremer are united by marriage.
About all this we have drawn up this document, in the presence of Johann Nikolaus Laplume, farmer, 40 years old, residing at Asselborn, not related; of Nikolaus Wilwertz, miller, 42 years old, residing at Trotten, cmmunity of Boegen, not related; of Michel Peters, primary teacher, 29 years, residing at Asselborn, not related; and of Michel Jacoby, farrier, 40 years old, residing at Asselborn, not related,
who, after it had been read aloud to them have undersigned this document together with us.
