It's not the religions that require the state license. It's the state governments that require a state marriage license if you want to be legally married. In the United States marriage is a civil legal status and not a religious status. Religious clergy are permitted by the US government to perform marriages along with many other public officials and anyone else who obtains a one day permit in many states. However, if you don't obtain a state marriage license first then you will not be legally married.

You have to get married in the same state in which you obtained your marriage license. But you can apply for an Arizona marriage license if that is the state in which you have decided to get married. Just because you got a marriage license in one state doesn't mean you can't change your mind and apply to get married in a different state. But when you do get married, you have to have a marriage license in the state in which you get married. The marriage license is not recorded as a "done deal" until after the wedding, so it shouldn't be a problem.
