Maiden name on GC but Married name on Passport

My wife received her 2 YR conditional GC last May 2016 and it's under her maiden name. We failed to seize the moment to have her GC issued under her married name because of the attorney's advisement. We plan to make a trip this summer to her home country. The problem is that her passport had expired and we had to renew it. We renewed it under her married name. So her passport does not match the name on her GC. Could we make this international trip and still return without an issue provided that we bring our certified marriage certificate to prove the change in name. OR should we just suck up the $495 and file the I-90, Application to Replace Permanent Resident Card? She's going to be submitting her ROC next Feb so I was hoping we could wait it out. AND I really don't want to hire an attorney for this change of name. 

ROC:

Filed: 2/22/17

VSC Received: 2/26/17

Check Cashed: 3/12/17

NOA1: 3/15/17

Just make sure she has all her documents with her: passport, green card and marriage certificate. There shouldn't be any problems and if asked, she shows them the docs and she's good to go.

just remember to book the tickets in her passport name
