Kardashian and Odom began negotiating a prenuptial agreement just last Friday, two days before their ceremony. In order for a prenup to be valid and enforceable, a court will generally require that the parties have had a reasonable period of time to consider the agreement before signing. So, it looks like Sunday’s wedding was for show (Literally. It was filmed and paid for by the Keeping Up with the Kardashians reality television crew.) Kardashian and Odom’s timing was the result of the TV show and the upcoming NBA season.

Purportedly, as soon as the couple has reached an agreement, they will marry legally. That won’t happen until Odom’s attorney Neal Hersh and Kardashian’s attorney Lisa Helfend Meyer hammer out an agreement.

Hersh knows his way around celebrity family law, having represented Kim Basinger, Brad Pitt, Pamela Anderson and Halle Berry in their divorces. Meyer previously represented Donna D’Errico in her custody fights with ex-husband Motley Crue’s Nikki Sixx and billionaire Kirk Kerkorian’s third wife, Lisa Bonder Kerkorian.

Although the couple has only been dating for about a month and despite the fact that no prenuptial agreement has yet been hammered out, the wedding will apparently go on as directed, at the home of a family friend in Los Angeles.

Odom and Kardashian have both reportedly retained attorneys to negotiate a prenup. A quickie wedding, however, makes the chances of a fully-considered, valid prenuptial agreement extremely difficult. A prenup might not be enforceable in the future unless both parties fully disclosed their financial situations to one another and had a reasonable amount of time to consider the proposed agreement.

Some in the media believe that the big wedding might not be a legally binding ceremony – but just a show for the cameras. It certainly would not be the first time that a celebrity bride and groom (I know, it’s kind of a stretch to call these two celebrities…) had a wedding but didn’t officially marry until later, after signing a prenup.

Back in September 2004, Britney Spears and Kevin Federline were married at a friend’s home, complete with bridesmaids and groomsmen, but didn’t make it legal until a few weeks later – in October – after they finalized their prenuptial agreement. Prior to the “wedding” though, they signed an agreement and acknowledgment that the big event wasn’t binding in order to prevent future claims to the contrary.
