You get a letter off your employer.
However, being in the red is not proof you can support her, so more than likely your application would be rejected.
Best way around that is to start work for 3 months, get a £2000 loan from the bank (not to spend, tell them it's for a car), then once that is in, wait another 3 months so you have the bank statements showing you have savings.
As you will agree, you planned the wedding 6 months to early, but you'll get there. It takes time, took me 2 years to get my missus here from Singapore, it's taken Pete over a year, and many others. It is not a fast process, and must be well planned at the start. Applications are rejected on a daily basis because people have not prepared the paperwork correctly. They will dump it for the smallest problem.
Admins advice is pretty good, you should get your employer to provide a letter of your salary details, however, you cant be in the "RED" that point was made to me by a top lawyer at David Webb Associates last year, they are top Immigration lawyers in London, being in the Red is almost likely to lead to a refusal to issue, you need a work history, and as Pualdo says, at least 6 months bank statements, if your banks statements show you are in the red, the ECO will think you will be close to requiring support from Public Funds, as the others have said, give it 3 months, you have a lot on your plate, like sorting out the wedding, you have to break this down into stages, it doesnt happen overnight, I hope it works out for you.
