marrige, or live together?

We have 'lived' together for 16 years, longer than either of us, had been married to others.
Is it worth being married financially, other than for inheritance tax?
I suppose we would receive a married couple state pension, rather than two single ones, when due, if there is any money left in the pot.
Please advise any pros and cons

this one could be a bit tricky as to being married financially is not any benifit as regarding tax as the married allowence has long gone. there might be implications as to tax planing and passing on your assets but you really need to take professional advice on this. I am sure one of the I.F.A on this site will pick up on this and pass on some usefull advice.0
