It is more likely they married within their own parish, so PRs and even if they married elsewhere they could have had banns read in their own parish.
Check on FreeBMD index using the county and a span of dates ( between census) when you get several possible husbands, look for each one of them in the next census and see if their wife 'fits'
You can also use both surnames only to look for births of children ( depending on the year)
Check other family members in the census, sometimes you will get others in the same household possibly written as a visitor using a completely different name, check them on other census as you may find they are 'in law family' I have found several using this method, two children in my great great grandparents house down as visitors who turned out to be grandchildren ( funny they were Smith too) which lead me to mums married name and the rest of her children
