Some of the things you could do may be difficult since you are not married yet and since you don't live together yet (i.e. don't share the same address). Here are some things:
-Share a bank account.
-Share one or more credit cards (be authorized users on each other cards).
-One of you adds the other to their car insurance.
-One of you adds the other as beneficiary of life insurance.
-Go on a vacation/trip together and save receipts/records that clearly demonstrate the two of you traveled together.
-Take more pictures of yourselves together, especially of the two of you with family members and mutual friends and at events.

Thank you so much! These are all great advice.
We will definitely plan on making a joint bank account before we get married and add each other to the life insurance as beneficiaries. As for the pictures, we have plenty (: also, we probably will find an apartment before we get married so that we get all situated before the wedding and the honeymoon, so we will definitely be signing under both our names.
Any other tips and advice? I think we’re going to hire an immigration attorney so that we don’t mess anything up.
