How should I tell my fiance that without a prenuptial agreement there won't be any wedding?

The wedding is in a few months so there is time, but what tone should I use to come across this.

Details;

we are both 25, She is in her 3rd year of dental school and I work for my parent's real-estate/development company. We have been in a relationship for the past 4 years. I am an only child therefore down the line I would be among the owners (there are two other owners, outside of the family) of this partnership company. I asked this question a few days ago and apparently it does matter to talk about monetary details so here they are.

Dentist make about 145,000-165,000 a year before tax here in Miami, on the other hand, our current percentage of distribution to owners in the company amounts to about $789,000 a year (after tax) this however is a nonrecurring income pertaining the current economical dynamics, i.e is likely to increase by 25-35% in the next 4 years.

Also, we have several equity (shares) and debt (bonds) investments that make a significant percentage of our assets in the company.

I never really though about getting the prenuptial agreement but my father and the company's lawyer are pressuring me to make one. Don't mistake this as a way to please my dad, is just a preventative solution to a unlikely divorce down the line

I am taking your opinions as a consideration, thanks

Again, my question is not “why should I do it” but “how should I come across with the idea to her”
