My best guess is Llwynypia for the groom.

The bride's place of residence looks like Aberderfyn to me. Chat GPT says that Aberderfyn was a hamlet very close to Wrexham. Here's what it says about the distance:
"Aberderfyn is located very close to Wrexham. Specifically, it is part of the Ruabon area, which is roughly 5 miles (8 kilometers) southwest of Wrexham. The two places are within easy travel distance, especially during the time period you are referring to, making it feasible for people to commute between Aberderfyn and Wrexham for work or family purposes."
ChatGPT also says there were many coal mines, or colliers, located in and around Wrexham and Ruabon. This lines up with the professions of both fathers in your record, plus the groom. Specifically, there was a collier in Ruabon that the father of the bride may have worked in.
Please keep in mind that all of this is coming from AI and you'll need to verify it.
You can explore more about colliers at the Wrexham Mining Project.
You can read more about the community of Ruabon here. Aberderfyn is mentioned under the Iron Works, Coal Mines, and Chemical Works section.
