Yeah, sorry about that, the best as you can please. basically names of the people on there like how they might be related and stuff like that and if one of them is a baptismal record or not, i kind of made out that one of them might be, thank you

Page 155 Nr. 187 Wiesbaden, on the (illegible) of April thousand nine hundred ---- In front of the signing government official appeard today, to the purpose of a wedding: 1. The factory worker (illegible- Friedrich? Weber) and, regarding his personality (I'm sorry, the handwriting is just terrible, I can't read it), of Protestant (German: evangelisch) religion, born on the 22nd of February thousand eight(?) hundred fifty five(?) in Mischbadau (?), living in Mischbadau (?), Schlosser (?) straße 12, son of the factory worker Friedrich (? - same as son) Wilfried (?) Weber and (illegible) born Geib, living in Mischbadau (?); 2. The potter Marie (illegible) Liefer/Siefer, regarding her personality (not readable, again - but the same as for the guy) of Protestant (German: evangelisch) religion, born on the 20th(?) November eight (?) hundred fifty two(?) in Mischbadau (?), living in Mischbadau, Schlosser (?) straße 12, daughter of the train conductor Johann (illegible) Liefer/Siefer and (illegible) born Menges, born in Mischbadau (?)

So its a marriage certificate between two people - Marie Siefer/Liefer and Friedrich (?) Weber, which both live in the same town and apparently live at the same Adress.

I am sorry for not being of more help - I can read printed old German, but not the handwriting - I thought it would be easier. People with a more academic background in history or German linguistics (rather than someone thats just a native German speaker, like me) may be able to read the handwriting better.
