Most of the parish registers from this period are missing and much of what survives has gap. It's likely the marriage was in another parish, for whose registers do not exist.

The most likely place you will find details of the wife are in Welsh wills, available on the Library of Wales site and Ancestry (PCC). But that would require a will of a relative gleaning the details. There are also digital images of abstracts of Welsh wills in the LDS catalogue (online).

You are lucky if you can find a marriage in Montgomeryshire before 1700.

Although not a name that you mention, there is a will of 1641 for a Richard Colly of Manafon near Llanllugan, which you can read online.

http://www.rootschat.com/links/01opa/

Put Colly in the search box and change 'Search Scope' to Wills

There is also reference to an Alice Colly of Hanmer in 1691 but no image.

The earliest transcript I can find:-
John Colly
Marriage date: 2 Jun 1680
Place   Manafon, Montgomeryshire
Spouse: Mary Usnam

Elizabeth Colly
Marriage date: 4 May 1673
Place: Berriew, Montgomeryshire
Spouse: Thomas Hibbotts
