結けっ婚こんN5
結婚 is the general word for getting married, while 再婚 specifically means marrying again after a divorce or a spouse's death.
転てん嫁かN1
再婚 is the ordinary modern word for remarriage, whereas 転嫁 in this sense is an archaic term mainly seen in old texts.

離り婚こんN3
離婚 means divorce (ending a marriage), whereas 再婚 means remarrying after a previous marriage has ended; learners sometimes mix them up because both share the kanji 婚.
復ふく縁えん
再婚 means remarrying (possibly a different person) after a divorce, while 復縁 refers more broadly to reconciling and resuming a broken relationship, not necessarily remarriage.

回かいN4
Used when counting occurrences or times something happens, including remarriages as events.

Compound of 再 (さい, 'again') and 婚 (こん, 'marriage'). The kanji straightforwardly indicate 'marrying again'.
