Aeneas' first wife was Creusa, with whom he had a son, Iulius (from which the Julian line got it's name). Creusa died as Aeneas was fleeing the city, and she predicted he would marry a foreign woman in the future. That woman was Lavinia, daughter of Latinus, king of the Latin people.
He did also have a year long affair with Dido, Queen of Carthage, but they never married. Before he could take vows with her, Mercury was sent to remind him of his mission from Jupiter.
