in I wanna buy it or do it
I'm GETTING MARRIED!!! :j In August this year. Are there any tips/help/advice on having a good pre-marital financial position & what changes tax-wise etc after we're married?

I currently have a mortgage on my property & some savings. My partner simply has savings.

I am taxed at 40% rate, and my partner is taxed at around 33%...

Any ideas suggestions on our current financial status & if I should move the property into her ownership etc?

Any advice on people I can speak to regarding this?

Thanks!

:money:

    One thing worth mentioning is that getting married (or Civil Partnered) nullifies any will you or your partner have made. So make that the first thing to sort out after your honeymoon. Or pretty soon afterwards anyway. I've left it 11 years so far...
