Of course OK to marry. But following the marriage, where will the two of you live? In the UK? Is your fiancée already living in the UK and thus exercising Treaty Rights? If so, how? Employed? Self-employed? A student? Or how?

In that case she might be exercising EU Treaty Rights as a self-sufficient person. But that begs the question, does she have comprehensive sickness insurance?

This is not an academic matter. Unless your wife, as she will be, is properly exercising Treaty Rights in the UK, then you cannot be issued with a residence Card, as her family member.
