Things to Think About Before You Say I Do

As wedding bells ring across Scotland, love is in the air - and legal planning might be the last thing on your mind.

Family law isn’t just about breakups and divorces. Clarity and communication are just as important as cakes and confetti.

Here’s what every couple should consider before, during and after tying the knot:

Prenuptial Agreements: Far from being unromantic, prenuptial agreements are a very common practical way to protect what you bring into your marriage. They help set expectations and reduce conflict if things change.

Postnuptial Agreements: Circumstances evolve. A postnup can clarify finances, property, and family matters after marriage - and are legally valid under Scottish law.
