just a quick update... ended up going back to manila to get a schengen visa. I chose the czech embassy as the eu directive seems to be in their website. Just got the visa today, only took them 5 days! All i had to show was the superlegalised marriage cert and copy of eu nationals passport!! So happy!

Thank you for the advise. It was very helpful... SO I am correct in thinking that I can first apply just for a schengen visa ( no need for a residence visa ) then once we are in spain we can then apply for the residence permit... having an appropriate visa will not be an issue then?
