Marriage record for J Heinrich Salsow

I am looking for the marriage record of J Heinrich Salsow and Maria Sophia Dorathea Schröder, she was known as Sophia Shrader in the USA. J Heinrich's birth record is in Volkenshagen parish. Sophia's birth record is in Blankenhagen parish. The family moved, Sophia's youngest brother's birth record is in Volkenshagen parish.

The marriage record would most likely be in Volkenshagen parish, but I can't find it.

Passenger List:
Ship: Bark Elbe

 Joh Salsow       35  m  farmer  Germany  US [J Heinrich]
 Marie Salsow     29  f          Germany  US [née Schröder]
 Doretha Salsow    6m f          Germany  US

The marriage of J Heinrick Salsow to Maria Sophia Dorathea Schröder would have been sometime before the birth of Dorethea in 1860.

I have looked in the following parishes on Archion.de: Blankenhagen, Blankenhagen Dänschenburg, Kessin, Volkenshagen, Cammin b. Laage, Bentwisch, Laage, Sanitz, Kavelstorf, Rövershagen. No luck.

I believe that the following is a false lead, this is probably a different person. According to another person's tree on Ancestry, this is J Heinrich Salsow's father's birth: Wilheim Joackim Hinrich Peter Salsow BIRTH 06 JAN 1798 • Hohen Schwarfs bei Dummerstorf; LK Rostock; M-V

Dummerstorf isn't close to Rostock, so this doesn't make sense to me. Maybe it will make sense to someone else.

Dummerstorf is in Kavelstorf parish, but I don't see this record, although the older records are very hard for me to read, I may have missed it.

The map has yellow pins where I have found ancestors and relatives.

I found the birth of daughter Dorethea. I should have looked for her first. But, I can't find her parents birth in the same parish.
