Marrying in France is quite straightforward and easy if your boyfriend is French.
I will find out more details and write them later.

If your boyfriend is French, you will automatically receive a French citizenship when you marry him. So, no problem

That is not correct. You'll get the French citizenship only after you've been married with a French for 4 years. If you divorce during that period you're file will be under investigation by the authorities.
