Legal Question in Family Law in Illinois

my partner and I got our marriage license today in Illinois Cook County.we are residents of Indiana. at the time the marriage license was issued, it was legal in Indiana to move same sex marriage. about an hour after we received the license, a stay was put on the order in Indiana. would it still be legal for us to get married in Illinois tomorrow morning?
