Hypergamy (colloquially referred to as marrying up) is a term used in social science for the act or practice of a person marrying another of higher caste or social status than themselves. The antonym hypogamy refers to the inverse: marrying a person of lower social class or status.
This is where an individual has more than one spouse and everyone is in agreement. This is not cheating and certainly is not bigamy. Polygamy is a choice and a way of life for thousands of people worldwide. A polygamist is someone who practises polygamy. Most commonly this will be one man with multiple wives and this is becomes family unit. All the wives are friends and are to be treated as equals. Monogamy clearly isn't working as divorce rates are higher than they've ever been.
