I have already replied to your other thread on this with the marriage details.

On freebmd this looks like the probable marriage - unfortunately no groom is given - you can buy the certificate using the reference from GRO online for £7 (never pay more and make sure you use the official site)

Marriages Dec 1854
Blackmore Alice Lewes 2b 229

(have cross checked and the groom is indeed Isaiah -page no. missing - use the ref for Alice with the page no. 229)

Marriages Dec 1854
Strong Isaiah Lewes 2b

This looks like the second marriage:
