Grandarog, this looks promising, but I can't identify the article in the link as I don't have a findmypast subscription. I do have one to the British Newspaper Archives though, so I can look it up if you tell me the date and/or publication. I thought I'd gone through most of them, but might have missed this one.
Thanks for the heads up.  :)

Well, the news item about wedding gifts was a good idea, but it didn't flush out any of her relatives, unfortunately. I have organised a cousin in England to receive the marriage certificate for me, so fingers crossed it may reveal a bit more.
Thanks, everyone, for your interest.

The good news is that ordering the marriage certificate for delivery to a cousin in England allowed me to see the information on it within a couple of weeks of ordering -- much faster than waiting for it to arrive by snail mail from the other side of the world.
The certificate names the bride as Emma Stanley Price and her father's name is correct, although his occupation is given as commission agent. His will identifies him as a silk merchant, which I guess could be considered a commission agent in a roundabout way. He died when she was about six years old, and by the time she married, her mother had also died, so she might have been guessing.
The marriage witnesses were not family members, alas, but they do add detail to the story. I've since discovered that her brother outlived her, although I don't know for how long.
So the answer is yes, she is the Emma Stanley Price I'd been searching for.
Thank everyone, for your interest and suggestions.

There are two private family trees on Ancestry- if they are not yours have you tried contact owner(s)?

I remember the Price connection to Coleraine mentioned in this thread-

Is this the same brother William?

Yes, same (only) brother William, now known to have been living in Bangor, County Down until at least March of 1942. Haven't found a record of his death anywhere, but still looking.
I don't have a tree on Ancestry but have given information to one or two cousins who do have them. When I go to the library tomorrow I'll look for contact details for the private trees.
