Hi Doreen, I believe the groom is Manuel Ferreira De Melo, son of Manuel Ferreira de Melo and Angela Vitoria, native of Sao Jorge parish in Doze Ribeiras.
I believe I found the groom's parent's marriage here (left) *http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/TER-AH-DOZERIBEIRAS-C-1737-1783/TER-AH-DOZERIBEIRAS-C-1737-1783_item1/P20.html* <http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/TER-AH-DOZERIBEIRAS-C-1737-1783/TER-AH-DOZERIBEIRAS-C-1737-1783_item1/P20.html> It looks to me like Manuel Ferreira, son of Alfares Antonio Ferreira de Melo (deceased) and Maria da Conceição, native of Espirito Santo parish in Vila Nova marrying Angela Vitoria, daughter of Antonio Machado Cotta and Maria Cotta from Doze Ribeiras. I say "looks to me like Manuel Ferreira" because the Terceira Marriage index lists Manuel Pereira.
