The Queensland Government BDM website shows their marriage in 1904 with a Registration Number B3454
To purchase the Historical Image from them is $20
As far as I know the parents of both couples should be on that Certificate.

Could be worth a try ;D

There are three deaths of John Pettigrew registered on the Qld BDM. One in 1974 may be too late but others are

1925 B46406 John Pettigrew
FATHER Alexander Pettigrew 
MOTHER Margaret
born Scotland
aged 67 years

Also
1954 C5441 John Pettigrew
FATHER George Pettigrew
MOTHER Elizabeth Malcolm

The "C" in the registration signifies a country death, The "B" means Brisbane
