Question:
What is a marriage contract? What do I need to include in one?
Answer:
It depends on your definition of a marriage contract. Currently, there is a push in our society for couples to discuss their marriage before hand and make a contract of what they will and will not do in marriage. This is one example of a marriage contract. Some people view a marriage contract as the vows that couples make at the alter. Again this is something that a couple can do prior to marriage and something that is agreed upon at the wedding ceremony. In terms of what you put into a marriage contract I would encourage you to talk with your fiancee about it and make some agreements before your marry.
Some people also consider prenuptial agreements as part of a marriage contract. This, however, is a legal document that includes attorneys in most instances. This type of a contract has more to do with finances and money related issues.
