A growing number of young Israeli couples are opting to sign prenuptial agreements and attend financial planning workshops before their weddings, normalizing discussions about financial management and potential dissolution of the marriage. What was once considered almost an insult is now becoming another task on the wedding planning checklist.
On a recent Friday morning, couples gathered at a youth center in Tel Aviv for a workshop focused on financial agreements and responsible financial management as a couple. The sessions addressed topics typically absent from engagement to-do lists, such as managing a joint household budget, defining personal versus shared assets, the pros and cons of joint versus separate bank accounts, and contingency plans for the end of the relationship.
