TLDR : Answer Summary
You can extend your Non-O visa based on marriage either for one year or for a 60-day family visit, but you must apply for these extensions when you have 30 days or less remaining on your current visa. If you choose the one-year extension, you need to meet the financial requirement of having 400,000 baht in a Thai bank account for at least two months prior to applying.

I think you misunderstand your options,

you can apply for a year extension by meeting the financial requirements WHEN you have 30 days or less left on the current entry stamp.

OR

you can get one 60 day visit thai family extension (again when you have 30 days or less left on your current stamp)

Those are the only two options you have as far as an extension on a Non-O based on marriage.

Also you don't have to lock the money in a thai account, you need to have the 400K baht in a thai account for 2 months before you apply for the year extension. After that there is no requirement to keep the funds in that account.
