I am a US citizen (born and raised in Michigan). My Fiancee however lives in the UK (in England). He plans on visiting here and he wants to take me back to the UK to live with him and marry once we get there. Does anyone know the requirements I would need to marry him in the UK???

Answer:
To marry him you need a marriage license and an authorized party to perform the ceremony. To live in the UK with him you must obtain a fiancee visa in advance, or apply after you are married to reenter the UK as a spouse; they will not be happy if you marry and intend to immigrate without getting a visa first. Individuals wishing to enter the UK on the basis of their relationship to a British national or a person present and settled in the UK do not have an automatic right of entry. Instead it is necessary to apply for a visa to enter the UK in the correct capacity. Prior entry clearance in this category is mandatory. Fiancé The requirements to be met by a person seeking leave to enter the UK as a fiancé(e) are that: (i) the applicant is seeking leave to enter the UK for marriage to a person present and settled in the UK or who is on the same occasion being admitted for settlement; and (ii) the parties to the proposed marriage have met; and (iii) each of the parties intends to live permanently with the other as his or her spouse after the marriage; and (iv) adequate maintenance and accommodation without recourse to public funds will be available for the applicant until the date of the marriage; and (v) there will, after the marriage, be adequate accommodation for the parties and any dependants without recourse to public funds in accommodation which they own or occupy exclusively; and (vi) the parties will be able after the marriage to maintain themselves and any dependants adequately without recourse to public funds; and (vii) the applicant holds a valid UK entry clearance (visa) for entry in this capacity. This visa is issued for six months during which time the applicant should marry his or her fiancé. An applicant cannot work in the UK whilst on a fiancé visa. It is not normally possible to extend this type of visa, however, once married, the applicant will be able to apply to change his or her status to “spouse” whilst in the UK.
