I think that pre-nups are a good thing.
It's important to establish ownership of property/items acquired before the marriage so that in the event the relationship goes sour, only items acquired during the marriage are taken into consideration as "joint property."
Unfortunately, I seen some beautiful, romantic relationships turn super ugly within years where the couple starts fighting over everything.
A pre-nup can also protect a spouse from garnishment of wages in the case of child support. I know a few ladies who are playing child support because the 'baby's mama' took the man back to court when he got married.
So, the court took the entire household income into consideration when establishing child support payments. Now those ladies wished that they had a legal agreement with their spouses in terms of what they were financially willing to folk over for their step-children.
