it seems they suspected her because she was ''too prepared'' and had a return ticket, hotels booked for a month and thousands of $ on her bank statement. it seems young american women travelling alone are frowned upon in the uk border check points. from what i've been told there was no guarantee the truth would have worked which is why we went this way in the first place(we knew about cases where people got sent back on suspicion of trying to stay in the uk even though it wasn't even the truth in many of those cases).
a few days ago we found out that denmark has very lax laws regarding marriage (basically anyone who is there , even on a tourist visa, can do it), so now we want to do the same thing but get a schengen visa instead so do you have any idea what country would be best to land in for the easiest possible entry in the schengen area? or maybe somehow obtain a travel schengen visa before leaving the US? i don't know if that' s possible though.
thank you very much for any help
