Thank you all for the answers. That's great help. We decided to get married in Vegas, yayyy! I'll be upfront at the border control and let them know I'm here to get married if they ask me. We don't want to lie and always play by the rules. I'll be prepared and bring some evidence with me that shows that I'll return. My fiancee is so excited! We plan to throw a full blown marriage celebration, including getting married in church, in Germany next year.

Hi,

I'm German and my fiancee is American. We planned to get married this Christmas in Germany but after getting buried with countless of papers and costs we started to consider getting married in Las Vegas and have a good time there while doing so. I'd return to Germany within a week.

About our situation: We both have great jobs and neither of us wants to migrate to the other country, yet. Our plan is to get married and after a while we'd decide whether we want to be in the US or Germany. However, not before 2020.

The questions we have:

Can I travel to the US under the VWP with the intend to get married and return right afterwards?

Will I have problems traveling to the US after getting married?

Will I have problems to adjust my status at some point?

Should we decide to live in America; Could I adjust my status while living in Germany at some point?

Btw., getting married and staying in the US is not an option for me.
