No. if one of you were christened in that parish it would qualify you to marry there (in that parish), but as your parents/you presumably have lived there for 6 months or more, you're fine:

I think it depends on the church but a lot of them have relaxed their rules. I have been christened but as Russian Orthodox. My future husband hasn't been christened at all. The vicar said that as long as one of us has been christened, that was fine and when I asked whether it was ok that I wasn't CofE, he said it was fine because CofE recognises the Orthodox branch.0 -

welcome year buddy, my husband was raised in the parish but neither of us live in it now, it depends on the vicar tbh : ours was fine with it as he'd lived there for 17 years xx0
