I looked in the catalog for the FHL library, and there are no films for marriages prior to 1816; the matrimonial investigations start somewhat later.

Baptisms exist from the mid-1700s.

The 1816 volume of marriages is inscribed "Libro 1" which suggests marriages were not recorded locally, or were not recorded separately from other records. Have you checked in the volumes for baptisms?

Otherwise, these marriages may be recorded in a nearby community.
