LOOKING FOR: ARE THEY SCANDINAVIAN? HELP ANYONE?

Antan Ludvik Thoreson, Ship Master
Married:
Armunda Maria Thoreson, maiden surname Hansen.

A little information I have:

Reference 170, Year 1918, District Aboyne, Entry 5
Date/Place
4th October 1918, The Huntly Arms Hotel, Aboyne, after banns according to
the forms of the Established Church of Scotland
Groom
Alexr. D.K. Wright, Policeman, Bachelor
Groom's Age
28
Groom's Address
37 Kelly Street, Greenock
Groom's Father
Peter Wright, Labourer, deceased
Groom's Mother
Annie Wright, maiden surname Morrice, now Brown
Bride
Asta Ludovica Thoreson, Lady's Help, Spinster
Bride's Age
28
Bride's Address
Bogiefern, Birse (unclear)
Bride's Father
Antan Ludvik Thoreson, Ship Master
Bride's Mother
Armunda Maria Thoreson, maiden surname Hansen
Witnesses
George M. Brown, Maria Morrice
Registered
4th October 1918

This shows that Alexander was 28 in 1918, so was born in about 1890 and his
parents were Peter Wright and Annie Morrice. Asta was also 28 and her
parents were Antan Ludvik Thoreson and Armunda Maria Hansen. I briefly
checked the 1911 census for Asta but there was no sign of her in that. I
assume her family came from Scandinavia.
Alexander was born in 1891 in Birse:-

Reference 175, Year 1891, District Birse, Entry 2
Name/Sex
Alexander Dalziel Keith Wright, Male
Date/Place
6th January 1891, 4:45am, Roadside Cottage, Birse
Father
Peter Wright, Farm Labourer
Mother
Ann Wright, maiden surname Morrice

Any help in the right direction would be greatly appreciated :)
