My boyfriend and I are planning our wedding this summer in the US. I am Canadian and travelling to US to be married and he lives in US under DACA so he is not a resident.

Yes, you can marry your fiance in the United States. However, he does not have any status that will lawfully allow you to remain in the U. S. He may eventually try to seek status in Canada from the Canadian Embassy or Consulate in the United States once you are both married. I strongly recommend an appointment with a competent, ethical, and experienced immigration attorney. Good luck.
