A mother has sole rights to her children unless/until a court order is issued giving the father custodial rights. If there is not a custody order from the court the unmarried mother may take the child/children and move whenever, wherever she wants.

That depends entirely on where you live. Here in Florida,the mother is assumed to have full natural parental rights and can move her children as she pleases, with or without the father's consent unless there is a contradictory court order. Check your state child custody laws. If you live in a joint custody state, you'd have to gain his permission or fight for a court order that gives you full custody.

Does a 16 year old mother have to get the father's permission to move out of state with the baby if she is moving with her parents?

That will depend on whether paternity has been established. If the mother is not married at, or within 300 day of the birth of the child, there is no legal father unless through the court. In that case, no one's permission is needed, however the father may bring suit himself. Under those circumstances, many courts will see allowing the move is in the best interest of the child. If there already is a court order in place, you need the court's permission, not the father's permission for the move.

Does a parent have to have custody to consent to their underage child's marriage?

No, You don't have to have custody of your child to consent to the marriage. You either have to be parent which you are or the gurdian. You are still your child's parent regardless of weather you have custody or not. You could also call to the Clerk of Courts and ask them if this will make you feel comfortable.AnswerIt depends on the laws of your state. But in many states (and for all I know it could be 'most' or 'all' states), a non-custodial parent alone cannot give permission for a minor to get married.
