I am afraid there is to way to get a marriage certificate without
paying for it.
The indexes are available free at FreeBMD but you have to pay for a
copy of the certificate either from the ONS or the local register
office

Here is the reference

Surname First name(s) District Vol Page
Marriages Mar 1899 (>99%)

Cookson Mabel Mary Tendring 4a
CROMBIE Alexander Tendring 4a639

And this seems to be her parents'
Surname First name(s) District Vol Page
Marriages Mar 1870 (>99%)
COOKSON Osmond Steyning 2b299
Smith Mary Ann Steyning 2b299
