So you have the first offense, and then maybe the subsequent ones of lying on the I-94W to compound it. Lawyer time: www.FongandChun.com.

Surprisingly enough, the original offense was so long ago it probably wouldn't have been much of a hiccup if declared in your immigration dealings. With the other stuff though, I'd say you now need a professional for damage control.

In answer to the question you posted in the other thread though as everyone on here will tell you...it is illegal to enter the US on a visa waiver with the intention of marrying a USC and staying.
You don't have enough time now (seeming you say you are getting married in 6 weeks) to apply for a fiance visa so what you will have to do is get married, you then return to the UK and the USC petitions to bring her foreign spouse over.
You should prob contact an immigration lawyer pronto though to sort out your visa waiver/CIMT questions.
