How do a state currently handle heterosexual marriages (also known as marriages) from other states which are illegal within its borders? The biggest two causes I can think of are first cousin marriages which are legal in some states and illegal in others and minimal age (Jerry Lee, you keep away from your cousin!)

They recognize the marriage as valid. Full faith and credit applies (Article IV).

Not true. States with laws against SS marriage have refused to recognize them. Several SS couples have gotten married in SS states then tried to get a divorce in hetero states and have been told that their marriage is not recognized therefore to go back to the state they came from to get a divorce.
