The Coalition for Marriage (C4M) is a British umbrella pressure group opposing moves to redefine traditional marriage. It has accused politicians of "meddling with one of our greatest national institutions" and is urging people to sign a petition to keep the law unchanged.

C4M's campaign director Colin Hart, who is also the director of the Christian Institute, has dismissed the UK government's consultation on legalising gay marriage.
- "Not only are they redefining the meaning of marriage, they're redefining the meaning of consultation," he said. "None of the main political parties proposed redefining marriage in their manifestos and the impact assessment misses out many of the possible problems that could occur if this institution is redefined, for example how this change will affect our schools."
- The institution of marriage was not the "plaything of the state" and could not be redefined by "a few politicians obsessed with appearing 'trendy' and 'progressive'". [1]
