It depends a lot on both of you. I was dating a Mormon girl, but when I left Mormonism, she decided she loved the church more than she loved me, so she left.
Mormons believe their church is the one and only true church, all other religions may have pieces of truth here and there, but their's is perfect. They also think their temple rituals, secret handshakes, and magic underwear (no joke, look it up!) control the one and only access to heaven (the "Celestial Kingdom," to be specific; Mormon heaven is a bit complicated).
If you don't convert, give up a ton of stuff you probably enjoy (coffee, alcohol, masturbation, etc), accept the Book of Mormon and other texts (including the blatantly fraudulent Book of Abraham) as scripture, and pay 10% of your income to her church, then she can't have the Mormon dream of being married in the temple for all eternity. She will believe that your marriage is for this life only, and will end as soon as either of you die. So you can expect ever-increasing pressure on you to convert and start paying.
Furthermore, her church will tell her that you are not a "worthy priesthood holder" which every woman and child need to have one in their home. Basically, her church will continually pound home the message that you're not good enough for her, unless you're a Mormon.
I would recommend doing a lot of research for yourself, and talking to her about what you learn.
