Findmypast has

British nationals married overseas 1818-2005
British nationals armed forces marriages 1796-2005

You could also request a certificate from GRO, *but* they may want the exact date before issuing it as the couple are probably still living.

Added - as they were both serving in the British Armed Forces, (B.A.O.R?) one would expect them to be on the overseas military returns

Would it be registered in Germany or registered at Army Base:
It does not appear to be registered at GRO England:
