Apply for a fiancee visa and be sure to prove the relationship with a US citizen.

your fiance will have to ask for a fiance visa for you and from California ,
please read this :
How Do I Bring My Fiancé(e) to the United States?

Background
If your fiancé(e) is not a citizen of the United States and you plan to get married in the United States, then you must file a petition with USCIS on behalf of your fiancé(e). After the petition is approved, your fiancé(e) must obtain a visa issued at a U.S. Embassy or consulate abroad. The marriage must take place within 90 days of your fiancé(e) entering the United States. If the marriage does not take place within 90 days or your fiancé(e) marries someone other than you (the U.S. citizen filing USCIS Form I-129F - Petition for Alien Fiancé), your fiancé(e) will be required to leave the United States. Until the marriage takes place, your fiancé(e) is considered a nonimmigrant. A nonimmigrant is a foreign national seeking to temporarily enter the United States for a specific purpose. A fiancé(e) may not obtain an extension of the 90-day original nonimmigrant admission.

How Do I Apply?
To find out how you can apply to bring your fiancé(e) to the United States, please see Application Procedures, which will help you identify what you need to do. Fiancé(e) petitions are filed at the USCIS Service Center serving your area of residence.

he has to file an I-129 application along with your and his bio information, you will find all the information at www.uscis.gov

after that's approved from the INS they will send it to the embassy at Philippines and you will receive lots of forms to fill up and will have to undergo a Dr. check up, ( they will test if you don't have AIDS, syphilis and X-ray your lungs for tuberculosis ),with all the forms you will go to the embassy for an interview and if you pass it you will get a visa on which you have to get to the US and get married within 3 months

good luck!
