Yes, cast as wide of a net as possible. You need what's in the book though...not the abstract on the little half size sheet of paper (the certificate) that says he married her on this date by me the priest. The stuff in the church book may have it. I know St. John's had the freguesia listed on the marriages in the very early 1900s. I don't know if they had it in the 1890s though. So let them know you are after the bride and groom's home village. Keeping fingers crossed!
