You both should do your own living trust, if you each gave assets to put into the trust, as you are not married. If you were married, you could do a marital trust. Trust are more flexible than wills as to the future changes that occur in your life.

This is complex question, you should probably gather the specifics and sit down and met with an attorney to address the options and costs.
