Wedding outside of United States

I am considering getting married in the Cayman Islands, specifically Grand Caymen. Could you tell me if this would be considered legal in the United States?

Re: Wedding outside of United States

It is legal, but only if you first get divorced from your old spouse (if any).

New York will recognize any lawful marriage.
