Details such as the invitations, cake and guest list take on considerable importance. Much research is done and options weighed all in the quest of orchestrating a &#8220;perfect&#8221; event. As couples plan this spectacular day, are they also planning for all the days to follow? Are they thinking beyond the wedding itself to essential things like wills and life insurance?<\/p>\n<p>Few couples, especially those marrying young, imagine the thought of a spouse dying early on in the marriage. Addressing this possibility and strategizing accordingly may prevent financial hardship during a time of emotional devastation.<\/p>\n<p>Women especially need to plan ahead financially:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>They usually outlive men by 5.3 years on average.<\/li>\n<li>Nearly one third of women between the ages of 65 and 74 qualify as widows.<\/li>\n<li>This figure jumps significantly to over 51% as women reach age 75.<\/li>\n<li>Women may become financially disadvantaged when their husbands die, for a variety of reasons. Sometimes women work part-time or even temporarily leave the work force as they juggle raising children and\/or caring for aging parents. Fewer years spent working full-time outside the home affects pension accumulations and Social Security benefits. Also statistically women earn 77 cents on the dollar compared to men. This gap widens with age.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Developing solutions in advance of life&#8217;s unpredictable events may help you deal with a loss someday. Here are actions to take as you prepare for life beyond your wedding day:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Talk to your fianc\u00e9 and family about your financial concerns, difficult as this may be. Perhaps schedule an appointment with a financial professional, or a family or estate attorney. Their knowledge can help you define goals, identify needs, ask the right questions and make important decisions.<\/li>\n<li>Ask yourself and your partner some serious questions. Does your financial outlook consider the possibility of your spouse&#8217;s death? Do you have a will? Are your financial documents, wills, trusts organized? Do either of you have short and long-term wishes?<\/li>\n<li>Draft a will. Implementing a will usually is quite time consuming even when constructed during a stress-free time in your life. There are many things to evaluate; you must think about important issues related to financial and personal matters. Perhaps as a result, 55% of Americans don&#8217;t have wills. An attorney can facilitate this process.<\/li>\n<li>Learn about each other&#8217;s assets including all bank accounts, retirement plans, insurance coverage, tax returns, life and disability income insurance policies.<\/li>\n<li>Develop an orderly, easy-to-access system. Store important paperwork and documents in a safe deposit box, locked file cabinet or some secure place with easy access. Make sure you both regularly update these materials.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>As you and your spouse-to-be plan your special wedding day, don&#8217;t forget to also address the future beyond. Horrible as it is to think about the death of your spouse, not preparing for the possibility can make a difficult time in your life that much worse. Don&#8217;t wait to get your financial matters organized. Develop solutions for a variety of life scenarios today.<\/p>\n<h6 class=\"zemanta-related-title\" style=\"font-size: 1em;\">Related articles<\/h6>\n<ul class=\"zemanta-article-ul zemanta-article-ul-image\" style=\"margin: 0; padding: 0; overflow: hidden;\">\n<li class=\"zemanta-article-ul-li-image zemanta-article-ul-li\" style=\"padding: 0; background: none; list-style: none; display: block; float: left; vertical-align: top; text-align: left; width: 84px; font-size: 11px; margin: 2px 10px 10px 2px;\"><a style=\"box-shadow: 0px 0px 4px #999; padding: 2px; display: block; border-radius: 2px; text-decoration: none;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.idotaketwo.com\/blog\/the-must-read-wedding-books-every-bride-to-be-should-buy\/\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"padding: 0; margin: 0; border: 0; display: block; width: 80px; max-width: 100%;\" src=\"http:\/\/i.zemanta.com\/237387925_80_80.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"padding: 0; margin: 0; border: 0; display: block; width: 80px; max-width: 100%;\" src=\"http:\/\/i.zemanta.com\/237387925_80_80.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><a style=\"display: block; overflow: hidden; text-decoration: none; line-height: 12pt; height: 83px; padding: 5px 2px 0 2px; background-image: none;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.idotaketwo.com\/blog\/the-must-read-wedding-books-every-bride-to-be-should-buy\/\" target=\"_blank\">The Must-Read Wedding Books Every Bride-to-Be Should Buy<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"zemanta-article-ul-li-image zemanta-article-ul-li\" style=\"padding: 0; background: none; list-style: none; display: block; float: left; vertical-align: top; text-align: left; width: 84px; font-size: 11px; margin: 2px 10px 10px 2px;\"><a style=\"box-shadow: 0px 0px 4px #999; padding: 2px; display: block; border-radius: 2px; text-decoration: none;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/destination-weddings\/destination-wedding-is-it-the-right-choice\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" style=\"padding: 0; margin: 0; border: 0; display: block; width: 80px; max-width: 100%;\" src=\"http:\/\/i.zemanta.com\/245073478_80_80.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"padding: 0; margin: 0; border: 0; display: block; width: 80px; max-width: 100%;\" src=\"http:\/\/i.zemanta.com\/245073478_80_80.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><a style=\"display: block; overflow: hidden; text-decoration: none; line-height: 12pt; height: 83px; padding: 5px 2px 0 2px; background-image: none;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/destination-weddings\/destination-wedding-is-it-the-right-choice\" target=\"_blank\">Destination Wedding: Is it the Right Choice?<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"zemanta-pixie\" style=\"margin-top: 10px; height: 15px;\"><a class=\"zemanta-pixie-a\" title=\"Enhanced by Zemanta\" href=\"http:\/\/www.zemanta.com\/?px\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"zemanta-pixie-img\" style=\"border: none; float: right;\" src=\"http:\/\/img.zemanta.com\/zemified_h.png?x-id=6d21e382-4fc2-422c-a0d6-6551da6868f9\" alt=\"Enhanced by Zemanta\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"zemanta-pixie-img\" style=\"border: none; float: right;\" src=\"http:\/\/img.zemanta.com\/zemified_h.png?x-id=6d21e382-4fc2-422c-a0d6-6551da6868f9\" alt=\"Enhanced by Zemanta\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Engaged couples often spend hours and hours planning their wedding day.
