If the reversal of the ban is held up, does that mean that the Supreme Court can dictate that Gay Marriage cannot be banned in the U.S.?

Yes and no, it would only apply to the specific law at issue, not the entire concept, but it would likely leave open very little in terms of ways to construct a law banning gay marriage without violating the Constitution. It's possible that the Supreme Court could rule in a fashion that left the door open to laws that were simply drafted differently, but it seems unlikely that it would go all the way to the Supreme Court without a more definitive decision being handed down.
