Planning on getting married in a temple in the US. Does anyone know what all paperwork (eg marriage license, certificate, registration) I should be thinking about and how to get it done?

Depends by state and who you might need to officiate the wedding. Before it, you will need to apply for a marriage license from your county clerk !mostly online now), which the officiant will fill out and sign, along with your signatures. That will then need to returned to the county clerk.
We just did this in Colorado and per state law, just officiated it ourself, no one else was needed to do it but most states needs an actual officiant or judge.

OP,
We had the same thing. And all appointments in Denver and Boulder were booked out for a month and a half for video/in-person. However, we found a smaller county's clerk that had appointment and booked that instead and because it's all online video, it doesn't matter. Atleast in CO, you don't have to get the appointment in the same county as we live in, any county works for it in the state, and the wedding can be anywhere in CO too.

Look at your local state guidelines.

If you need someone to officiate in CA, get a family member to apply and become a 1 day officiant, and then they can go to the temple with you.

Drive to Vegas and get officially married. You can do religious ceremony in California afterwards.

Was talking to this girl ( arranged marriage ) over the past couple of months(jun-sep) and things were progressing towards in the correct direction.

During our inital conversion in the early stages, I had mentioned everything about my status (h1b. with early stages of perm,i-140 stage) and told her how she won't be able to get EAD immediately after coming the US)

All of sudden she said(oct) she now does not want to come to the US as my status does not allow her to work immediately in the US.
