In my case often didn't marry at all! But with these names mis-transcriptions very possible - have you looked on freebmd using phonetic search option?
EDIT Oh I see, you did find them!

Marriages Jun 1894 (>99%)
Ashburner Selina Ann Westminster 1a 894

Wondered if they had married before but can find no evidence of that - and Selina was definitely born Ashburner (great name!):
