When a couple married in England in early 1800s, how would 'consent of the parents' be presented?
Did they need a piece of paper, attendance of the parents or was their word good enough?
In the case of my own line, the husband was 'a minor', about 5 years younger than his bride.

The rules had been set out in Hardwicke's Marriage Act 1753.
The Act required that, for a marriage to be valid, it had to be performed in a church and either after the publication of banns or the obtaining of a licence.
If the marriage was by licence, those under the age of 21 had to prove parental consent before the licence was issued.
If the marriage was by published banns, then express proof of consent wasn't actually required. If the parent wished to prevent the marriage, they could simply forbid the banns.
