If you have already your visa then it was not required. You're travelling from the UK I suppose, and as married to a UK resident it's easier to get a Schengen visa rather than applying from the Philippines. They know that there are few risk for you to become an illegal immigrant by overstaying... Just be sure not to overstay, European countries are more and more sensitive on this subject. Remember also that you're not obliged to enter/exit Scehngen area in the Netherlands but from one of the 15.
If you are travelling in several countries, be careful to really stay within Schengen countries border and not enter any other European country even in transit as in this case you may need to secure a transit visa first (and check your Schengen visa if it's multiple entry or not). All Schengen countries do not share common borders.
