The British Consulates General in Ekaterinburg and Saint Petersburg both publish advice for British citizens wishing to marry in Russia http://www.britain.spb.ru/consular/getting_married.html

They also have information on tourist visas for Russians to visit the UK as well as immigrant visas for wives. Even though it is simple to get your girlfriend a visa to visit you in the UK, my advice is to go to Russia and visit her first. If you get along in person, then you can invite her over to blighty for a holiday with you.
