What would be better for my wedding?

My fiancee and I are planning on getting married in May this year in the Philippines. However, I have been told that it is better to get her to the States before we get married. What would be better in your mind; getting married there or here in the USA? Any advice would be great...

    it really depends on you...but let me point out a couple of things:

    1. there's no divorce in the Philippines...

    2. its cheaper to get married in the Philippines especially if you are earning in Dollars...

    3. there's a lot of great beaches in the Philippines where you can spend your honeymoon....

    4. if her relatives are in the Philippines, it would be cheaper if you have it there...so you dont have to spend for airfare...

    My answer would be the USA. The Philippines are beautiful. If

    there are families, what do they have to say. Just my 2 cents

    worth. What ever choice may I wish you and your fiance, a very long life with everything you wish for. And LOVE to you both. Peace

    My Filipina girlfriend here says it's better to marry in the states, to get the Fiance Visa which is available and faster to get here to the US whereas if you married her in the Philippines bec it's cheaper, it will take longer and be more difficult to bring her to the US afterwards. She doesn't know why, but she married a Philippino and they're here in the US and so they know....

    This might sounds silly, but I'd base the decision on where the most number of people who will be attending the wedding live. For example, if there will be more people from the USA at the wedding, then it's going to be easier to do it there.

    Does she have any preferences?
