I’m looking to marry my American fiancée. I myself am from the U.K. Basically is it legal to marry on an esta then leave the country and apply for a Green Card from the UK?
Then I heard if I wanted to visit the country while applying I might run into problems?
 
Yes, it’s fine to do that way.
There will be increased “suspicion” of your visits, make sure to (1) take proof with you that you’ll be returning to the uk to wait it out (letter from employer, etc) and (2) don’t visit too often for too long - general rule of thumb is twice as long out of US as in it.
 
Totally fine.. enter on ESTA, get married, exit the US, await green card processing in the UK.

For visiting, agree with the post above.
