Here is their marriage.

Marriages Dec 1900
Hill Florence Louisa Islington 1b 759

If you buy the certificate it will give you both their ages and fathers' names.

Certificates can be bought online for seven pounds through the GRO website

Once you confirm her father's name, then you might be able to track her back through the 1891 census etc.

Good luck,
