Is this the record you are looking for ? -
https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:XT2S-MFM

Parent details are very rarely included on these type of records -

Do not expect too much from OPR banns & marriages records. The amount of information recorded can be variable and most entries contain very little detail.
http://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/Content/Help/index.aspx?r=554&406

There are 2 records showing on SP on the Old Parish Record's for those names -
3rd March 1844 Galston Ayr
22nd March 1844 Riccarton Ayr

If the couple died in Scotland after 1854 their death certificates should have parents names.

John
 sorry for the delay --i didn't know i had a message waiting
--Margaret Willock  and John Murdoch are my (GGG) . Their son George Willock Murdoch  married my  GG Elizabeth Kent
This is as much as i know as i have been trying to find John Murdoch's parents  I beleive   it is Margaret Pollock and Robert (John ) Murdoch although  I have no proof
Regards
Terry
