I have this situation also.
It appears that both of these churches were both affiliated to the Church of
England. Sometimes there was a second marriage because in a church of another
faith when one faith was not the established church in England at the time and
the marriage would not have been recognized. But, this does not appear to be
the case here.
I, personally, would use the information from the earliest marriage in the
record and enter the second marriage in the notes.
Maybe the couple had a falling out and felt they needed a renewal of their vows?

James Spencer (a corporal in the Grenadier Guards) married Ellen Kemp on
24 Dec 1868 in St. Margaret's Church, Westminster. The couple then
married again on 27 Feb 1871 in the Royal Chapel in the Tower of London.
I am now looking into possible reasons for them going through two
marriage ceremonies, but my immediate problem is: how do I record the
two marriages in Legacy?
I would be grateful for any suggestions.
