As an Anglican priest and the Anglican Chaplain on the island of Ibiza I performed a marriage in Ibiza, for a Catholic couple. Their Catholic English parish priest in England completed all the necessary paperwork and authorities, petitioned their Diocesan Bishop of Durham who gave a dispensation for the couple to be married by me. This was sanctioned by the Vicar general of the Catholic Church in Ibiza and authority to take the wedding was conferred by the bishop of Ibiza. The couple were married by me in San Agustin and the marriage was recognised and validated by both denominations. I requested the presence of the parish priest of San Agustin, I was not required to do this, but he also signed their marriage licence. It was wise to do this but neither his presence nor his countersigning the licence was required. I guess my Holy Order were verified and line of Apostolic succession was valid.
