Being an undocumented alien is a statutory tort against the state, the remedy for which could be removal from the country, which could make it difficult or impossible to cohabitate with your spouse. However, if you prove the marriage is genuine for the purposes of Immigration law, you may be able to use that as a basis to apply for a visa, although as an undocumented alien you may have to apply from outside the country.
Such a marriage will be investigated by the USCIS to be sure it is not a sham being used solely to remain in the country. It is a federal crime to use the existence of or proof of a marriage which was entered into solely to support an attempt to obtain a visa to support an application for a visa, and not for the lawful reasons to enter into a marriage.
Your status as an undocumented alien is distinct from your capacity to marry. You need only have the capacity and the desire to get married. A State court judge or magistrate can perform a civil ceremony, after which you have to obtain a marriage license or certificate. Clerics are also authorized by the State to solemnize marriages.
