Vishnu Temples in general do not have Navagrahas, the Nine Palnets.

Shiva temples have the Navagrahas.

The Vaishnavas believe in worshiping Vishnu and hence they feel that it is not necessary to worship Navagrahas separately.

However there are Navagraha Parihara Sthalas for Sri Vaishnavas.

For delayed marriage, difficulty in married life with life partner or misunderstandings between couples, to get all comforts in life, a visit to Srirangam and offer prayers to Lord sriranganathar and sriranganayaki thayar on Friday is good as it removes Sukra dosham.
