If you are married then I don't see any problem to you your spouse being allowed to join you in any Schengen country but it would seem you are creating unnecessary problems (paperwork, explaining why you married somewhere else, hoping the consulate will know how to deal with an unusual set of circumstances etc) by thinking of involving another country. Why not get married in Phil? Then its more or less straightforward.
