The Bible tells us, “At the resurrection people will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven” (Matthew 22:30). This was Jesus’ answer in response to a question concerning a woman who had been married multiple times in her life – who would she be married to in heaven (Matthew 22:23-28)? Evidently, there will be no such thing as marriage in heaven. This does not mean that a husband and wife will not longer know each other in heaven. This also does not mean that a husband and wife could not still have a close relationship in heaven. What it does seem to indicate, though, is that a husband and wife will no longer be married in heaven. There is likely no purpose for marriage in heaven since there is no procreation or loneliness.

If both the husband and wife make it to heaven, then yes they will be married.
I know a lot of people are saying no but believe me, the love that you have shared in this life will NOT be lost in heaven.

Mat 22:23 a similar day the Sadducees, who say there is not any resurrection, got here to Him and asked Him, Mat 22:24 asserting: "instructor, Moses mentioned that if a guy dies, having no toddlers, his brother shall marry his spouse and carry up offspring for his brother. Mat 22:25 Now there have been with us seven brothers. the 1st died after he had married, and having no offspring, left his spouse to his brother. Mat 22:26 Likewise the 2d additionally, and the 0.33, even to the seventh. Mat 22:27 final of each and every of the female died additionally. Mat 22:28 subsequently, interior the resurrection, whose spouse of the seven will she be? For all of them had her."

Mat 22:30 For interior the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, yet are like angels of God[2] in heaven.

Mat 22:33 And whilst the multitudes heard this, they have been astonished at His coaching.

NO; marriage doesn't continue upon resurrection as stated in bible book of Matthew 22:28-33
28 So tell us, whose wife will she be in the resurrection? For all seven were married to her."
29 Jesus replied, "Your mistake is that you don't know the Scriptures, and you don't know the power of God.
30 For when the dead rise, they will neither marry nor be given in marriage. In this respect they will be like the angels in heaven.
31 "But now, as to whether there will be a resurrection of the dead—haven't you ever read about this in the Scriptures? Long after Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob had died, God said,
32 `I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.'* So he is the God of the living, not the dead."
33 When the crowds heard him, they were astounded at his teaching.

Well the bible says you don't so most Christians would not believe that you do. I think Muslims and Mormons believe that you can still be married in heaven under some circumstances.

If you are married by someone with the proper Authority then yes.

18 Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

Mat 22:30 For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but they are as the angels of God in Heaven.

The Bible states that no one is given into marriage in Heaven.
The Latter Day Saints(Mormons), however, believe that one can be sealed to his/her family for all eternity while here on earth. So I guess if you're Mormon, yes. Otherwise, no
Good luck

God the Lamb, aka "Jesus Christ" has a particular affection for 144,000 Virgin Jewish boys who were not defiled by women. They are going to be with him werever he goes... So the chances for you to elbow yourself closer to Jesus with your wife (I take it that she is a woman and therefore has the capacity to defile) are very slim... Sorry... God's Word has spoken!...
Revelation 14:4 (NIV) These are those who did not defile themselves with women, for they kept themselves pure. They follow the Lamb wherever he goes.
