Marriage after GC

[IrinaPo]

My I-485 has been approved. My fiancé has a 10 years multi-entry visa to the US. We are planning to get married next year.
Is there any way/status to bring him to the US as a spouse of a GC holder?

Any suggestions are highly appreciated.

Long term = IR1 visa
Short term = H-1B or L-1A/B

Long term = IR1 visa

As the spouse of a Permanent Resident? We're talking FB2, and the six year wait.

That is why I used the word long here

A GC holder cannot do anything to bring the spouse to the US. Basically your spouse must come on his own by obtaining non-immigrant visa.
You can sponsor GC for him, but it will take 5, 6 years from now on to get it approved in any way.
Long term dual intent visas (H1B, L1) are the best option.

I have heard about FB2 with many years of wait but not IR1 visa.
Is it the same thing?

They're not. An FB2 immigrant visa is given to the spouse/minor children of Permanent Residents, and there's a six year wait. An IR1 immigrant visa is for the spouse of US citizens, and there is no wait.
