Unfortunately her birth certificate which is attached to their marriage certificate does not show her parents.

(marriage certificate, previous page, Peter's birth certificate next 2 pages)

This death of Antonia TUCHTAN on 13 Sept 1937, aged 68, born Austria, has the same address as the bride in the marriage above, so likely related.

Pretty sure this must be related:

Antonio VALENTINI died aged 73 in 1930. His wife's name was Petronella (nee Marinovich). One of his daughters is Annie Mary TUCHTAN.

Other children are also listed on the Death Notice.

There are a few other TUCHTAN records on familysearch in South Africa. They seem to have come from Austria /Bosnia and Herzegovina (which came under Austro-Hungarian rule in 1878).

Renato Elia Guiseppe TUCHTAN is her father (and Annie Mary VALENTINE is her possible mother)

Start of Renato's 1969 estate file:

Since last Thursday the OP has been online a number of times already. Therefore it is a pity there has been no feedback and/or acknowledgement for the time and effort given to this topic.

Thank you for all your research and responses.
My apologies for this tardy response.  Crisis back at the ranch!
I have finally explored all the very useful possible family links that you have sent me and am still trying to knit together any other TUCHTAN names in South Africa.

Renato Elia Guiseppe TUCHTAN Fitter and turner
1898–1969
BIRTH 5 JAN 1898 • New Unified Maraisburg, Gauteng, South Africa
DEATH 23 MAY 1969 • Discovery Hospital, Roodepoort, Gauteng, South Africa

annie mary VALENTINE OR VALENTINI ???

It is a likely guess that Renato Elia Guiseppe TUCHTAN (1898-1969) was also a son of Ludwig Joseph TUCHTAN (1858-1922) and Antionette/Antonia (1869-1937, nee VALENTINE/I), he seems to be living in the same house as Antonia (in 1937) and where Antonia's daughter was married from, when he died. - 6 Shamrock St, Florida.

The death of Umberto Vittorio TUCHTAN in 1926 has his parents as Ludwig Joseph TUCHTAN and Antionette
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CS9T-TW6F-F
(you can see his wife and children's names on the Death Notice).

Also, for interest, there is a passenger list on Ancestry for the Athenian, leaving Hamburg 2 Aug 1896 going to South Africa via Southampton. On it are Antonita TUCHTAN, 28 and Umberto TUCHTAN, 3, from Fiume going to CapeTown.

Hope that all makes sense.
