I can only see one possible single entry in the OPRs for births in Dalry in the time frame you are looking at for Margaret's birth. Different variant on the spelling for the surname? Sometimes also can show as Dewart etc:

James DYART, son of James DYART (mother's name not included)
03/01/1802
Ref 587 20 / 103
Dalry

Regarding the different dates you have for the marriage and banns, this is a useful guide www.nrscotland.gov.uk/research/guides/birth-death-and-marriage-records/old-parish-registers/marriages-and-proclamation-of-banns
