Leader/ Sibley marriage c. 1837

Classification: Query
Surnames: Leader, Sibley
Hello, I've been searching for the marriage of the following, but have not found it so far!

Robert Leader, born 1817, Shoreditch
Sophia Sibley, born 1819, Antwerp, Belgium

1841 Census shows the couple as married and living in Brook Street, Stepney. First child Robert was born in 1841.

I know Sophia's maiden name was Sibley because I have their daughter's birth cert.

I have searched Free BMD index as far back as possible (1837) but have an inkling the marriage may have been just before then, which is why I can't find it.

Sophia must have been young when they got married, I have not traced her back any further and don't know when she went from Belgium to London.

Any help would be much appreciated!
