I don't think that there is a limit to the number of family members or extended family members. However, there may be other considerations, such that they may be maintained and accommodated without recourse to public funds.

Can I get married or register a civil partnership in the UK? wrote:Religious ceremonies

The rules on certificates of approval do not currently apply if you plan to get married at an Anglican church in England or Wales, after marriage banns or with a religious licence. To find out more, you should contact a member of the clergy at the church where you plan to get married.

I believe if the migrant worker is in employment, the recourse to public fund don't apply as a condition for insuance of a residence card to an extended or direct family members.

As you are already an holder of a UK issued residence card, i believe you are essentially free to marry in the UK without the need for a COA
