    "If you want to see your fiancee but not get married on that trip, US immigration law does not really have an option for that”: yes it does. It has two options, in fact: the VWP and the B-2 visa.

  • @phoog you're right, I was exaggerating how badly the US treats this. Edited.

  • Even with an ill-informed official, the K-1 problem only arises if the fiancée is a US citizen, which isn't specified in the question. Another problem with this answer is the ambiguous nature of the "adjacent territory" rule for two VWP visits, which, on its face, is at the discretion of the immigration officer. But this issue is in any event not implicated in this question, since the contemplated itinerary only includes one visit to the US, so bringing it up is unnecessary and confusing.
