Love is emotional. Marriage is legal. Attorney Ryan Schwartz joins Reagan to discuss the questions every couple should ask before “I do.”

Most couples spend months planning the perfect wedding—but skip the conversations that could protect their future. In this candid episode, attorney Ryan Schwartz joins host Reagan to talk about the legal side of marriage, from prenups to “change of heart” clauses and why choosing who you have children with may be the most important decision of your life.

Ryan shares stories from his work in family and criminal law, explains why a prenup is really an operating agreement for your marriage, and breaks down the costly mistakes couples make when love and finances collide. Reagan adds her own perspective from years of seeing the “front end” of marriage planning—and why she believes these talks can be just as important as the seating chart.

Whether you’re engaged, remarried, or simply curious, this conversation offers a rare, practical look at the realities behind the romance.
