You won’t be applying via adjustment of status. That’s a different thing. 
 

You’ll marry and then apply for your immigrant visa via consular processing. Follow this step by step guide - https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/immigrate/the-immigrant-visa-process/step-1-submit-a-petition/step-2-begin-nvc-processing.html

 

There’s also a good VJ guide at the top of the page. 

 

You can’t move to the US until you have your visa, although you can continue to visit whilst it’s processed. 

 

Good luck.

You can get married but must return to Canada after your authorized time. You would have your interview in Montreal.
