Getting married in Wyoming? A prenuptial agreement lets you set clear expectations about property, debt, and (where allowed) support—so you’re not relying only on default state rules.
Key points
- Prenups are recognized if they’re voluntary, in writing, and signed by both partners.
- Unenforceable if involuntary, unconscionable when signed, or lacking disclosure without waiver.
- Wyoming has adopted the UPAA. Must be in writing, signed before marriage. No notarization required but recommended. Full disclosure or waiver is necessary.
