The custody order should go away. However, in order to make sure there are no issues, it would be a good idea to ask the court to terminate the order based on the remarriage.

If you remarry, the terms of the decree of divorce would be nullified, and both you and your former spouse would have equal rights of custody to the children. Any obligations to pay child support or alimony would also be extinguished upon your marriage to your former spouse. If this marriage does not work out, it would be necessary for one of you to file another divorce action and to address the issues of custody, parent time, support and the division of debt and obligations and assets obtained during this marriage.
