Yes because it is unconstitutional. It violates the Full Faith and Credit clause. U.S. Constitution Article 4 Section 1 "Full faith and credit shall be given in each state to the public acts, records, and judicial proceedings of every other state..." This is why you can drive in another state without getting a drivers license specific to that state. This clause applies to marriages as well, therefore it is unconstitutional for a state to not recognize marriages granted in another. Side: yes
