To obtain a marriage license in Mexico, you typically need to visit the local civil registry office (Registro Civil) in the municipality where you plan to marry. You'll need to provide identification, such as passports, and may also require additional documents like birth certificates and proof of residency. It's advisable to check specific local requirements, as they can vary by state. Once you have the necessary documents, you can complete the application process and pay any associated fees to receive your marriage license.

Maybe, if you believe hard enough
It is written into the US Constitution. States have to recognize the actions of other state.
That would be bigamy which is a crime. And to get the license, they would have to lie on the application, which is also a crime.
If your marriage license was lost in the mail, it is not a big problem. You can always get a copy at the courthouse where you applied for the license.
