What is the name of your state? Florida
Recently, a groom-to-be chose not to say "I do" at the altar, and consequently, the marriage was not consummated.
Perhaps the groom-to-be, being an attorney, smelled a rat. Here is where the groom-to-be balked:
The couple was on the altar in front of the pastor, and the pastor asked the groom-to-be, "Do you vow to put (bride-to-be's name) over all other persons in your life - your parents, your children?"
The groom-to-be would not answer, and shortly thereafter simply stated that he wasn't yet ready to commit to marriage.
Here's my question: In this scenario, had the groom-to-be answered "I do" or "yes" regarding his willingness to place the bride-to-be over all other persons in his life - including his parents and his children, should he have died, would his new bride be heiress to his estate? Or, would she have more leverage in court in the likely event that she and the groom-to-be entered into a prenuptial agreement?
Just curious.
Thanks.
