How does marriage gay work in the United States


How does marriage gay work in the United States?
If you get married in California/Iowa/New Hampshire would that marriage be recognized in another state? Also, if you're not from that state, could you still get married there?

Massachusetts, Connecticut, Iowa, Vermont and New Hampshire, along with the District of Columbia and the Coquille Indian Tribe, perform same sex marriages. This means that you may enter the state and get married there, regardless of your state of residence. New York, Rhode Island and Maryland recognize, but do not perform, same sex marriages. This means that if you are in a same sex marriage and enter these states, you will be recognized as married, but you may not marry within the state.
