ELI5— what this means for you
A minor who is allowed to marry (18–21 with parental consent) needs their parent or guardian to be a party to the marriage settlement. Otherwise the minor's prenup is unenforceable.
Official text — EO 209
The marriage settlements and any modification thereof shall be in writing, signed by the parties and executed before the celebration of the marriage. They shall not prejudice third persons unless they are registered in the local civil registry where the marriage contract is recorded as well as in the proper registries of properties. (122a)
