Answer
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, The Most Merciful.
As-salaamu `alaykum wa-ramatullahi wa-barakatuh.
You mention you made a big mistake. As human beings we do make mistakes. If you are referring to a sinful act, then Allah has opened the door of tauba (repentance).
Make tauba from the sin and make a firm intention never to repeat the sin in future.
Your marriage is intact.
And Allah Ta`ala Knows Best.
