As Alice was born in Dublin, presumably they married in Ireland. Certainly no sign of marriage on FreeBMD.

The 1901 and 1911 Irish censuses are FREE

http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/search/

Check them out

Look for marriage info using familysearch for Ireland, or freebmd for England/Wales

His name is unusual enough for the records to be fairly noticeable

1871 and 1881 censuses for England/Wales are FREE and in full on familysearch
