Harold Holdsworth Harper b Dec q1875 Bradford, married either May Beatrice Lines or Emma Sutcliffe in June q1904 Lancaster.
In 1911 he was a widower.
The other groom was Wilfred Irwin Wilson, he went to America in 1910 but it appears that he went without his wife (Ellis Island records).

H H Harper was a clergyman and the information I have from Crockfords is that he was at Holy Trinity Gateshead 1904-1907 and St Cuthberts Bensham 1907-1910 and then Lyons 1910/11. I am guessing that is Lyon, France.

Can anyone see how I can find who he married??

There's a death for an May B Harper, but there's this one if he married Emma:

Deaths Sep 1909
HARPER Emma 37 Newcastle T. 10b 13

I think May B Lines was born in Morcombe Lancs, but I can't see a May Wilson born there in 1911, nor death for her, so I can't prove conclusively that Harold married Emma, but it seems likely.

Thanks Merry, Emma was my first choice as well.

When Wilfred went to America hs gave his last residence as Leeds, so I looked for May or Emma Wilson alone in Leeds, but couldn't find that either!
