A-Marriage-Medal-Of-Spain?--Whose-Marriage,-And-When?

This 38mm, high relief, copper medal seems to have been made to commemorate a marriage.

But whose? And when?

The obverse legend seems to say "IOSEPH.AA.ELISABEBOVRE.PHILIP.HISP (plus unreadable).

The reverse says "FELIX CONNVBIVM". I'm having trouble reading the words and date at the bottom.

I believe it is Archduke Joseph of Austria, who would go on to become Holy Roman Emperor Joseph II. He married his first wife, Isabella (Elizabeth) of Parma, in 1760.
