If your marriage license was not processed due to a technical error but you had a proper wedding do you need to go through a divorce if you separate?

I believe you would need to call the office where your marriage license was issued, and ask them about the laws in your state. In some states you would still be married, regardless of the SNAFU.
I had this happen - and the lady at the office in the courthouse said "If you intended on getting married - you're married." So, yes, I had to have an attorney and the whole works.
If you are not legally married, you cannot get divorced. However, a technical error with the marriage license may not necessarily mean you are not legally married. It may be still legal, or you may be common law married.
If you are not legally married, you can still file a civil suit for the dissolution of property.
