Definition: A gift of property from one spouse to another before marriage.
Example: John gives his fiancé, Jane, a diamond necklace as a prenuptial gift before they get married.
Explanation: A prenuptial gift is a gift given by one spouse to another before they get married. In some states, prenuptial gifts are made to preserve the property's classification as separate property.
