Your new spouse will not automatically be responsible for your pre-marital debt. Depending on the amount of money your spouse makes, it COULD be more difficult to file Chapter 7 after you are married.
You should consult with a local bankrtupcty attorney to discuss your options. Most offer a free initial consultation.
Best of luck
