Aphrodite did not willingly marry Hephaestus, it was the god of metal who sent his mother, Hera, a golden throne that captured her, to release her Aphrodite was offered as the bride of the god that freed Hera - Aphrodite consented to this believing it would be Ares who freed Hera, but it was not and Hephaestus undid what his 'gift' had done and won her for his bride.
