Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) who have been married or 'sealed' in a Temple ceremony are considered both legally and religiously married. If they obtain a legal divorce, their religious marriage is still recognized by the Church and therefore they cannot be married in another Church ceremony until obtaining a 'Church divorce' (called a 'sealing cancellation') as well. In order to obtain this, they must speak with their Bishop and Stake President about the situation, and these leaders will apply for the sealing cancellation.
The official Church Handbook of Instruction says this:
"A living woman may be sealed to only one husband, if she is sealed to a husband and later divorced, she must receive a cancellation of that sealing from the First Presidency before she may be sealed to another man. A man who has been divorced from a woman who was sealed to him must receive a sealing clearance from the First Presidency before another woman may be sealed to him. (This is necessary even if the sealing has been cancelled or the divorced wife is deceased)
If the Bishop and Stake President decide to recommend that a cancellation of sealing or a sealing clearance be granted, they submit an application to the First Presidency. Before submitting the application, the Stake President should be sure that the divorce is final and that the applicant is current on all legal requirements for child and spousal support related to the divorce." (pg 85)

What are the purposes of marriage in christianty?
The purpose of marriage is so that not only the church but the government of that land can recognize that a man and a woman are legally joined as husband and wife for the period of their mortal lives. The church so that the man and the woman commit no sin of fornication and the law of the land for its own political purposes. As an extra note, it does seem a shame that the marriage has to end when one or both parties die. I think that the Mormon idea of marriage for time and all eternity sounds a much better arrangement.

How do you marry a Mormon man that is already legally married and wants another wife?
Legally and religiously, you cannot. Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) ended the practice of polygamy (multiple wives) over 120 years ago. If a Mormon man has a relationship with anyone that is not his one legal wife, he will be excommunicated from the Church. Polygamy is illegal in every western country. You cannot have a legal marriage to more than one person at a time. Even living with multiple women as though you are married to them even if you are not can get you a 5 year prison sentence in many states. Despite all this, there are some who practice polygamy. Many polygamists in the United States consider themselves 'fundamentalist Mormons'. They are not affiliated with the mainstream Mormon church, but belong to groups that broke from the Mormon church when polygamy was banned. Men in these groups typically have a legal marriage with their first wife, and then have a religious marriage ceremony to a second wife that is recognized by their church but not by the law. Exactly how this process happens depends on the particular group.
