Hi Everyone:
I could use a little help with a translation of a marriage record. I am looking for the marriage record of Giuseppe Insigna and Preziosa Innuso of Mistretta, Messina, Italy. I think I found the correct record in the index for 1854 but not sure about the translation of the actual record. Any assistance would be appreciated. Here is the link for the index:

Here is the link to the record (I think):

Thanks again,
Sue Antista

The groom's parents were deceased. Before each name "defunto/defunta"
The bride's mother's given name looks like Sebastiana to me, and surname Antoci.

Michela's surname could be Azzolina which is found in the town. The next to the last letter looks more like an "n" in the index.
