On arrival into Thailand with the Non O Visa as Married to Thai obtained while you are in the UK...

You are stamped in for 90 days...

IF you need added time to get your Thai bank account funded or something else...

You can apply for the 60 day Family Visit Extension from your local Thai Immigration office for 1900 Thai...

These are the common found requirements for the 60 day Thai family visit

THESE are the common found requirements for the One year extension of stay as Married to Thai. Ask your local Thai Immigration office for their requirements.

Submit your application for the Non O Visa as Married to Thai using...

The UK Thai Embassy website says..

Non-Immigrant Type O (Visiting or staying with applicant's family resided in Thailand (more than 60 days) - single entry only)

Proof of relationship to a family in Thailand, e.g. a copy of marriage certificate / birth certificate / certificate of adoption

Personal details of a family in Thailand, e.g. ID card, Passport and the visa page or stay permit in Thailand

Proof of accommodation in Thailand e.g. hotel bookings, invitation letters from family/friends in Thailand

Then visit your local Thai Immigration office and ask for the list of requirements for the one year extension of stay as Married to Thai.
