Got engaged... in DUBAI!

Congratulations Mope, I got married in Mexico (which is actually quite complicated for a foreigner to do), brought my wife to California since she had a tourist visa. It takes up to two years for a status change (tourist to permanent resident) but at least I had her with me, if I had done the fiance route she would have had to wait 3 or 4 months away from me but the permanent resident card would have been a lot faster, don't know if I could have lasted the 3 or 4 months! Prayers for you two, hold your breath, she IS worth the wait! Seventeen years and four kids later, I don't think I'm smart enough to have made the decision, I was certainly helped by the hand of God! I'm smiling more now than I was then, here's to the both of you!
