Are you a British citizen? It is not well known (including by officials and airlines) you have the right that your wife can join you on your travels. As an Armenian citizen she needs a visa but that has to be provided free of charge and under an accelerated procedure (often it takes under 24 hours). You do not need to go through the otherwise required visa agencies and they cannot ask for documents other than passports and the marriage certificates – although they often do if you don't insist. Theoretically it can even be applied for directly at the border but that might be a bit stressful. Here is a handy guide by the EU commission http://ec.europa.eu/home-affairs/faq/freetravel/doc/guide_2004_38_ec_en.pdf http://ec.europa.eu/home-affairs/faq/freetravel/doc/guide_20... If you are not an EU citizen, yes it's tough. Although they should give out multi-entry visa after she had one once or twice.
