I think this really does need a certificate to get the name of her husband.
However I have also found these entries in that record set, they has the same volume and page numbers:

This looks like two marriages per page...
No children to either potential husband can be found.
Finally I noticed that the hardcopy of the index page included the surname of the spouse, which was: Sievwright.

On FindMyPast it has three India Office births, all in 1944 or after, so they might be impossible for Mary to have been involved with her birth in 1890. The mother’s names are not given.
