It's okay to give her a chance (showing you are willing to cooperate). Maybe she could indicate a 'timespan' e.g. we could try for xx months/' THEN try couples counselling (showing, in turn, her desire to cooperate).
This way, you also know you won't be kept dangling forever in this uncertainty. It is her prerogative if she doesn't want to move forward, but she can't expect you to hang on forever.
I would also clarify both your definitions of marriage if you feel she perceives it differently than you. Best to ensure you are both on the same page before getting married and committing to a life together.
