But I understand your sentiment if you are talking purely from a tax standpoint. I didn't get married for the legal benefits, though, nor did I care about the tax disadvantages. I married my wife for one reason only. I wanted to spend the rest of my life with her and wanted to make a binding public commitment to that effect. I would have done it even if both of us were incapable of having children.

You do not have to get a marriage license to get married under many religions. You filed for the licence because you thought you should, or your church required it. Even if incapable of having children you would have to be legally married to adopt.
Most people incapable of having children are not aware of this when they get married.
