If she qualifies, she may apply for Tier 1 (PSW) from Burma to travel to UK. In UK, she can then apply for CoA (if it is not abolished by then) or whatever it is replaced with, and upon approval, marry your son in the UK. She may then apply forextension of leave as spouse of British citizen.

One does not currently need a CoA if getting married within the Anglican Church in England and Wales.
