Hi JJ

The 1871 Census for your couple shows two children born in Newcastle upon Tyne (let me know if you want the details).

Robert registered 1865 and Jane Ann registered 1862 according to online Newcastle Register Office.

There's no record of the marriage on the Newcastle online index but at least those births give you a rough idea for a marriage date.

Regards
