Does George name his father on the wedding certificate ?

No birth for George Edwin Wright in 1911 so maybe Wright was his stepfather's name

The MMN is on the index.......finding the marriage should not prove too difficult for the OP

I doubt that he has the marriage cert............

WRIGHT George E - Peters - Nottingham 7b 808

Mike*

The birth is on freebmd........you are forgetting that when the MMN was added to the index, the full second forename was not recorded

The death which I posted shows his DOB

Without knowing where he was born he could be any George E.

If the MMN was indeed Peters, this is the family in 1911
