Marriage yields children. Making new people grows a civilization. The state would definitely want to incentive any means to grow a civilization. In the modern day, these incentives look like tax deductions. Gay marriage doesn't yield children. Why should the state give the same incentives?
My solution: The State shouldn't create incentives for people to get married. People will get married because they want to.
