Could this be their marriage, about the right timeframe ?
I'm unsure as to what their "solemised wedding" at Drybrook means, does this mean to make a Registry Office wedding "religious" in their eyes perhaps ??

Its a non conformist marriage at the Congregational Chapel ( enlarged 1872) with a civil ceremony at the Registry office ?

what a particularly sad time to lose a loved one...
