The way to avoid that you will have any kind of common property, and that the surviving spouse inheriting any part of the first deceased's assets:

1) make a pre-nup about completely separate property (it will be wise to make a list of what belongs to whom, and update it regularly)
2) make a mutual will, where both of you from now renounce any future inheritance from the other.

Inheritance is not something you MUST accept.

It is advisable to get help from an attorney. The pre-nup MUST be notarized ("tinglyst") to be valid, while it is not mandatory, however advisable, to notarize the will .
