If you want to marry your existing domestic partner, then you may do so. If you are a same-sex couple, however, you will have to marry in a state that permits same-sex marriage.
If your existing domestic partnership ("DP") is a state-registered comprehensive domestic partnership, then you cannot marry in a state that offers state-registered comprehensive DPs. You also cannot marry in a state that permits same-sex marriage, since these recognize your DP as an existing marriage.
If your existing DP was state-registered in Wisconsin, then it does not prevent you from marrying in another state. If you are a same-sex couple, however, you will have to marry in a state that permits same-sex marriage.
If your existing DP is a municipal- or county-registered DP, then it does not prevent you from marrying someone else. If you are a same-sex couple, however, you will have to marry in a state that permits same-sex marriage.

How do general partnerships limited partnership and limited liability partnership differ?
All of the partners in a general partnership are fully liable for all debts and obligations of the partnership. In a limited partnership, there is always one or more general partners and one or more limited partners. The general partner(s) in a limited partnership, like the partners in a general partnership, are fully liable for all debts and obligations of the partnership. The limited partners, on the other hand, are not liable for any debts or obligations of the partnership beyond the amount that they have contributed or committed to contribute to the partnership. In other words, limited partners can lose their entire investment in the partnership but a creditor of the partnership cannot go after the other assets of the limited partners. A limited liability partnership (LLP) is created by state statute, as is the limited partnership, but compared to the limited partnership statutes, there is much more variation in LLPs from state to state. That makes any general description potentially wrong, based on the law of the specific state in which the LLP is operating. Generally, all or some of the partners in an LLP have some degree of limited liability protection. The partners usually have to be members of a licensed profession such as CPAs, attorneys or engineers.
