The best fit marriage I can see is:

March qtr 1839
Loughborough Registration District     vol 15, page 135

Holmes, Williams
+ and, on the same page +
Clarke, ann


Due to the rounding of ages on the 1841 census, William's age would probably be shown as 20?
(Adult ages were rounded down to a multiple of 5 years)
Garrad (Suffolk, Essex, Somerset), Crocker (Somerset), Vanstone (Devon, Jersey), Sims (Wiltshire), Bridger (Kent)

You could try the Sheffield Indexers website.  They found a census record for me that I'd been tearing my hair out for about 10 years!

For Thomas's birth there is a Thomas Holmes, born 1939 hull (subdistrict Sutton) on Yorkshire BMD
which I can't see on the GRO with-maiden-name indexes.
