Make sure "let him have whatever sports car he wants" is in the wedding vows :) :)
Three words: "prenuptial" and "separate accounts". Congratulations! :)
Seriously, congrats... this November we'll celebrate 30 years, and having a prenup and separate accounts is one reason for lasting that long, even in tough times. Neither party have reason to be fearful when entering a marriage that honestly.;)
"whatever relates to cars is the full owenership of the husband"
^^^^^^^ oh, even better, Wouter.
Is this why you're still single tho' :) :) :)
30 years in 11 days time :) :)
"would have been released from manslaughter sentence by now" :)
Congratulations!
I got married about a year and a half ago. I recommend you just say "yes" to everything your fiance wants to do wedding and honeymoon wise. You may be a part of the planning of this wedding for the next few months...but she has been planning this thing for HER ENTIRE LIFE!
So just sit back, relax, let her do everything, and just have some fun with it. Keep a smile on your face and make the best of everything!

emmmm.....
I'm fine with my car already, already got the prenup and separate accounts.
:)
We'll spend our honeymoon in Cancun. I hope no hurricane blasts by while we're around.
I understand a prenup if you have accumulated a great deal of property prior to marriage but for those of you espousing "separate accounts" why do you guys prefer that?
my wife and I dont have a prenup and we dont have separate accounts. Of course it wasn't a big deal for us because we both didn't have much before we got married anyway.

See i think if my wife and I had separate accounts we would probably still meddle in each other's finances.
If she comes home with a 1000$ purse I would raise hell about it whether it was all her money she spent on it or "our" money. Simply because shouldn't "we" be making the best decisions financially for "our" future?

also if she has her own source of income?
[quote=henk4;947287]also if she has her own source of income?[/quote]
Yes. She does, we both work.
[quote=roosterjuicer;947291]Yes. She does, we both work.[/quote]
so two separate accounts plus one common account...for which you both agree to put on a monthly contribution?
