@RequiemIt might be helful if you confirmed which country within the EU you're looking for advice on, as has been pointed out each Member State has their own rules for your scenario, which may or may not apply to you.

 

You seem to be posting from Lithuania.

 

Yes, I am. I assume no one is here from Lithuania so I don’t expect anyone to know.

 

I actually got a reply from authorities that we can get married while she’s on a Schengen visa and she can then apply for a temporary stay permit and get a national visa while waiting for the decision.

In Denmark... Ewen if you can fulfill all the things you have to, it still might be refused.
As you say, they can not refuse you to stay together, but they will say nothing is stopping living together in Thailand insted of in Denmark.

Many other countrys like Germany or Sveden are a lot eaysere.

As above, check the regulations in your home country, for example in the UK you can no longer marry on a Tourist Visa (we just scraped in).

 

Also, from personal experience, if you intend living in your home country get married there, if you intend living in Thailand get married in Thailand.

 

I got married in Thailand in 1978.  Came back to the USA in 1980.  I'm stuck with her.  ????

Surely after 5 years she would have been eligible for German citizenship? Then she could travel freely and live in the UK (before brexit last year). If she was in UK as a German before Brexit then she could have stayed like many other European citizens do.
