Newlywed Starter Set

The Couples Estate Plan covers both you and your partner. Here's exactly what you'll each receive:

Last Will and Testament: Outlines how you want your assets distributed, names a guardian for any children, and designates someone you trust to carry out your wishes after you're gone.

Advance Healthcare Directive: Documents your medical preferences if you're ever unable to speak for yourself, and designates someone to make healthcare decisions on your behalf.

Financial Power of Attorney: Authorizes someone you trust to manage your finances — paying bills, handling accounts, filing taxes — if you're ever unable to do so yourself.
All documents are state-specific, attorney-designed, and customized to you. Once complete, you can download them instantly or have them shipped to your door.

Why it matters: Most couples put estate planning off for years. The Newlywed Starter Set makes it something you can check off together, right now, in under 30 minutes.

A Last Will and Testament is a legal document that outlines how you want your assets distributed after you pass away. It lets you name beneficiaries, designate a guardian for any children, and appoint someone you trust to carry out your wishes.

Most people in their 20s and 30s assume this can wait. It can't. Getting it done now, while life feels simple, is exactly when it's easiest.

Why it matters: Without one, the state decides what happens to your money, your belongings, and your kids. Not you.

The Newlywed Starter Set includes a Last Will and Testament for both you and your partner, so you can check this off the list together.

An Advance Healthcare Directive is a legal document that spells out your medical preferences if you're ever unable to speak for yourself. It tells doctors and loved ones what treatments you do or don't want, and designates someone you trust to make healthcare decisions on your behalf.

Nobody wants to think about this in their 30s. But if something unexpected happens and this document doesn't exist, your family is left guessing — and in some cases, fighting — over what you would have wanted.

Why it matters: It takes minutes to set up and gives everyone peace of mind for years.

The Newlywed Starter Set includes an Advance Healthcare Directive for both you and your partner. Two people covered, one step.

A Financial Power of Attorney is a legal document that authorizes someone you trust to manage your finances if you're ever unable to do so yourself. Think paying bills, managing bank accounts, handling investments, or filing taxes on your behalf.

Here's what most young couples don't realize: without one, even your spouse can face serious legal hurdles accessing your accounts in an emergency.

Why it matters: Setting this up now means that if life throws you a curveball, the person you trust most can actually step in and help.

The Newlywed Starter Set includes a Financial Power of Attorney for both you and your partner. It's one of the smartest things you can do as a couple, and it takes less time than you think.

Honestly, yes. Estate planning sounds like something your parents do, but it's really just a set of documents that make sure the people you love are protected if something happens to you. Getting married is actually the perfect time to do it. Your life just got more intertwined with someone else's — your finances, your home, your future kids. Having these documents in place means both of you are covered from day one, not someday.

Because you're already doing the hard work. You just got married, which means your finances, your home, and your future are now legally connected to another person. If something happened tomorrow, your partner needs to be protected — and so do you.

Most couples mean to get a will. Very few actually do it, because it never feels urgent until it is. A Newlywed Starter Set removes every excuse: no lawyer appointments, no confusing paperwork, no separate purchase to make. You handle your name change and your estate plan in one step, while you're already in the mindset to get things done.

Why it matters: The best time to set up an estate plan is before you need one. That's right now.

Yes. The estate planning documents included in the Newlywed Starter Set are attorney-designed, state-specific, and fully legally valid.

Once you complete your estate plan through our partner LifeLegacy, you'll receive documents customized to your state's laws and your specific wishes. To make them legally binding, you'll sign them after receiving or downloading them.

Why it matters: A lot of people assume online estate planning is a shortcut that won't hold up. It isn't. These are the same documents an estate planning attorney would prepare for you, at a fraction of the cost and time.

LifeLegacy is a trusted online estate planning platform that has helped thousands of couples and individuals create legally valid Wills, Healthcare Directives, and Powers of Attorney — without the cost or hassle of hiring a lawyer. Their estate planning tools are available in all 50 states.

Because estate planning only works if both partners are covered. A Will, Healthcare Directive, and Financial Power of Attorney for one person leaves the other completely unprotected — and most couples don't realize that until it's too late.

The Newlywed Starter Set includes a full Couples Estate Plan, meaning both you and your partner each receive every document you need. Not one set. Two.

Why it matters: Getting married means your lives are officially intertwined. Your legal documents should be too. The Newlywed Starter Set is the only product that handles both of your name changes and both of your estate plans in one step.

Yes, and this is something a lot of couples don't realize. Each person needs their own Will, Healthcare Directive, and Financial Power of Attorney. That's why a Newlywed Starter Set includes a Couples Estate Plan — both of you are fully covered, not just one.

Most couples complete their estate plan in under 30 minutes. LifeLegacy's guided process walks you through everything step by step — no legal jargon, no confusing forms, no attorney's office required.

Here's how it works:

1. Answer a series of simple questions about your wishes, your assets, and who you'd like to designate for key roles.
2. Review your customized documents generated specifically for you and your partner based on your answers.
3. Once your documents are created, you’ll receive clear signing instructions based on your state and document type. To make them legally binding, follow the included instructions for signing, witnesses, and notarization where required.

You don't have to complete it in one sitting either. Your progress is saved so you can pick up right where you left off.

Why it matters: The number one reason people put off estate planning is because they think it's going to be a big, complicated project. It isn't.

Not at all. The Couples Estate Plan included in the Newlywed Starter Set is designed to be straightforward and guided. You answer a series of questions about your wishes and the platform generates your legal documents. No lawyer's office required. Most couples complete everything in under 30 minutes.

We actually recommend completing your name change first. When you sign legal documents like a Will, your name needs to match the new name on your photo ID. Doing things in order (name change first, estate plan second) means everything lines up cleanly from the start. The Newlywed Starter Set is designed with exactly this sequence in mind.

Yes! You can purchase any NewlyNamed product before your wedding. We'll walk you through everything in the right order.

You can start your name change using your NewlyNamed Box once you receive your marriage certificate - the legal document you receive after your wedding ceremony.

After your name change is official and your new photo ID arrives, you can complete the Couples Estate Plan.

Not at all! Each partner fills out their own estate plan separately, at their own pace, through LifeLegacy's guided process. You don't need to be sitting next to each other to complete it.

You can purchase today, get started on your end, and your partner can complete their section whenever they're ready. Your estate plan never expires, so there's no pressure to do it all at once.
