She applies for another student visa, but this time as a dependent on your visa. Normally, you must have included all family members on your application even if they weren't coming to Australia, but as she wasn't your wife when you applied for your visa, she can apply as soon as you are married and will be eligible for a visa. I won't give you a link as the correct one depends on your visa and assessment level, but how to go about it is fairly obvious on the DIAC website - her assessment level will be the same as yours, even if she holds a different passport. Select your visa type and go to the application section. You will probably also need to lodge a Form 919. Note that she is only able to study for a maximum of 3 months when she is here as a dependent and will only be able to work for a maximum of 20 hours per week all year around (unless you're here on a Postgraduate research visa).
