Frequently Asked Questions
Is a private marriage legally binding?
A properly executed private marriage covenant creates a legally binding contract between parties. While different from a state marriage license, it utilizes established contract law to create enforceable agreements. Our course explains exactly how to maximize legal protection.
Will this work in my state?
The principles taught apply nationwide because they're based on contract law, which is recognized in all states. However, specific applications may vary by jurisdiction. The higher tier packages include state-specific considerations and adaptations.
Can I get legal benefits like tax advantages?
Some benefits are tied specifically to state-recognized marriage and cannot be replicated (like filing joint federal taxes). However, many practical and legal protections can be established through private agreements. We detail exactly what you can and cannot replicate.
