Do be sure that if you choose the marriage route that you are prepared to meet the legal requirements in the Philippines specifically you can refer to this:

-

Suspect you are aware of this but you will need the affidavit mentioned and will have a 10 day waiting period for the license

-

As mentioned with a K-1 (Fiancee visa ) you can get her to the USA quicker but she will have to wait for 3 to 6 months after filing adjustment of status (after getting married in the US) before she'll get her work authorization or ability to leave and re-enter the USA.   As stated above a period of transition that if you have time and money can involve lots of exploring the USA together but otherwise likely means your new wife is sitting at home missing you and wondering what she can do.
