Advice on Visa's

[UKBound]

Hello:

I am new here so please bare with me with my questions. I live in the US and my fiancé lives in the UK and is a UK citizen. Plan is to eventually be married and live in the UK and is able to provide financial support for both of us. Fiance has a past criminal record from 25 yrs ago (B & E)I live in the USA and have a part time job that I started early January 2014.

Plan A: fly to Greece and get married. I return home and apply for a spousal visa.
Plan B: I apply for fiancé visa fly to the UK, get married and live there
Plan C: go to Canada get married, he returns to the UK and I return to USA and apply for fiancé visa. Upon discovery, my fiancé would need to complete the application for criminal rehabilitation-does this really take up to a year to process and gain entry to Canada for him? What would he need to do to speed that process up?
Plan D: would I be able to apply for a visitor for marriage visa, fly to the UK, return home, apply for spousal visa then move to the UK.

We are both desperate and would greatly appreciate any advice.

Thank you.

Plan A itself should work. Go for that.

Plan A: fly to Greece and get married. I return home and apply for a spousal visa.
Plan B: I apply for fiancé visa fly to the UK, get married and live there
Plan C: go to Canada get married, he returns to the UK and I return to USA and apply for fiancé visa. Upon discovery, my fiancé would need to complete the application for criminal rehabilitation-does this really take up to a year to process and gain entry to Canada for him?

Plan D: would I be able to apply for a visitor for marriage visa, fly to the UK, return home, apply for spousal visa then move to the UK.
