You are legally married in the State of Nevada, the State of Illinois recognizes the marriage in Nevada. I assume there are no circumstances that would render the marriage in Nevada not legal -- bigamy; under age of one of the parties; etc.

Yes, if your marriage was legal in Nevada, then it is recognized in Illinois.

Reputation Level 15
Yes, so long as the marriage was legal in Nevada.
