Thank you Jenny,
My thoughts exactly. I just wanted confirmation that I wasn't missing something 
and might regret it later.

Kind Regards

  I very soon came to the conclusion that there were far more cons than
  pros concerning entering Census Events as Marriage Events.

  You are going to have Census Events popping up all over the place:  one
  or other partner being away from home on a Census night, children
  staying with relatives or growing up and later growing up and moving
  away.  I much prefer to have all one person's Events being kept with
  that one person.

  I keep Marriage Events for events which relate strictly to the Marriage
  - Announcements in the Press, Banns, Wedding Parties, etc.
