As a foreign national, in order to marry in the UK you will have to give register with a Home Office designated Registry Office. The Registrar is then legally bound to notify the HO who can then extend the notification period from 28 to 70 days in order to interview you both before the marriage can take place should they choose to do so.
The list of designated Registry Offices:

Marriage won't change your legal status and you will have to apply for a spouse visa from outside of the UK.

I don't believe you can submit a visa application in the UK while you have an appeal running. Others may want to comment whether this is applicable to JR.
