No, it doesn't make you a resident just because you marry in a different state than you live in. In fact, it usually takes at least a year of living in a state to become a resident, unless your new husband lives there. Some states also require you to be fully self supporting for that year too. Arizona is like that, you have to be fully self supporting for that first year to be considered a resident of that state. Unless you get married to a current citizen.
Hope this helps, good luck and have a great day, and I wish the best for your marriage!

No. Your residence is where you live (house, apartment, etc.). You can only become a resident of another state if you move there. There are also time requirements that vary from state to state. So if you live in California and take a month vacation in Tennessee, you're still a California resident, not Tennessee.

No. Residency is established by a number of different means. I got married (second time!) in one state, but lived in another and it didn't affect my residency.
I would suggest, however, that you do get a copy of the official marriage license after it has been recorded so that you have some proof of marriage later. You would be surprised when you'd need it!

You will have to meet the requirements of that stae for a marriage license but does not automatically make you a residence of that state.You must further meet the residency requirments of that state to become a resident

No, but some states (like Texas), require you to live there for six months preceding the date that you get the marriage license. In other words, that you are already a resident of said state.
No, Nevada is not like that, just drop in and get hitched, and be on your way!!

No. You grow to be a resident of a state the day you progression there with the purpose of staying. different indicators of residency could be voter registration, motive force's license, insurance.

Nope. I live in California, but went to Nevada to get married.
A resident is someone who actually lives there and has set-up home.
You can also get divorced in other countries even if you married in the US.

No, it just means that you got married in that state. That's all. :-)
