The witnesses were not related to Aalt or Machteltje.

Usually the wedding took place in the birthplace or residence of the bride. The notice of marriage usually took place in the birthplace of both the bride and the groom. I'd suggest to search in Nunspeet 1778-1780 for the notice of marriage.

Gelders Archief: 694.1 Nunspeet, Trouwboek - Nederduits Gereformeerde gemeente, 1772-1807. Couldn't find anything in here.

First son Cornelis, baptized 16/4/1780 Nunspeet, born 12/4/1780, witness Dirkje Cnelissen (=Cornelissen). Who was Dirkje? Sister of Machteltje?

Try to find out who where the witnesses at each baptism and how they were related. Maybe this way, you can find out who the brothers, sisters and parents of Machteltje are and where she was born

Thank you for prompt response Dorethé

Marriage of Dirkje?

Dirkje is born in Epe, lives in Doornspijk
Children in Elburg.

In the same periode in Nunspeet:

Huwelijk Dirkje Cornelissen en Leendert Hoefnagel, 07-11-1783

Huwelijksdatum: 07-11-1783

Inventarisnummer: 694.1
Pagina: 26

This Dirkje is from Harderwijk and lived in Haarlem.

In my opinion, the Dirkje x Gerrit Hendriks could be a sister of Machteltje.

Let's look at the marriage of one of the children (Aart) in this family:

Marriage 18 Feb 1817 Doornspijk of Aart Westhuis and Aaltje Pater:

Huwelijksbijlagen of this marriage
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-C39V-VSSK
Look at scan 374. If I read it correctly; then parents of Mechteldje Cornelissen are "Cornelis Jans" and "Hendrikje Harms".
From this I think that Mechteldje was baptized in Epe on 28-01-1759:

Not sure if this will help in finding the marriage I am looking for.

Dorethé: looks like Dirkje is indeed a sister?
https://www.wiewaswie.nl/nl/detail/93593557

Witness Hendrikje Cornelissen in 1784 could have been Hendrikje Harms. Sometimes married women were registered with the patronymic of their husband. I'm not sure if this was custom in the area around Epe.
Knelis = Cornelis.

Knelis/Cornelis Jans and Hendrikje Harms had more children:
1753 Dirkje
1754 Geertje
1755 Johanna
1757 Hermnina
1759 Machteltje
1762 Hendrik
See https://www.openarch.nl/search.php?top&name=%2Anelis+jans+%26+hendrikje+h%2Arm%2A&number_show=10&sort=4&start=0

I suppose that the marriage took place in Epe, or at least the notice of marrige.

Thanks to everyone that helped me find the marriage registration!
I looked at scans of book 663.2 at GeldersArchief; but did not find it.
I asked Streekarchief about source for their index. They told me it was book 22; which is book 663.2 at GeldersArchief!

Comparing the index to the scans; I found...

SCAN 663.2-0015 last item matches this index item:
Camphuis, Reijer, ;(onder-)/trouwt op 26 06 1778/19 07 1778 ;in Epe ;met Jacobje Lamberts.
SCAN 663.2-0016 first item matches this index item:
Pikeren, Hendrik Gerrits, ;(onder-)/trouwt op 10 09 1779/10 10 1779 ;in Epe ;met Engeltjen Henricus Ruijs.

Perhaps some pages from the marriage book were not scanned by GeldersArchief.
GeldersArchief have added this to their list of things to look into later.
Streekarchief have scanned the registration; which i uploaded here:
https://www.werelate.org/wiki/Family:Aalt_Westhuis_and_Mechteldje_Cornelissen_%281%29

Thanks again to all those that helped me find this item and also the additional information provided!
