First you need a visa. For you to get a residence permit you need to be a student, a worker (you need to have the job before you come), or you need to be an au pair. Family ties do not count unless you are directly related to a finnish person, so in your case, until you get married you do not get residence permit based on family ties. Get in contact with the finnish embassy.
