You can use a template to create a last will and testament, allowing you to pass your assets to your son. You can fill in the blanks to name your son as the beneficiary and print and sign.

You can sign the will after he gets married if you want. You'll need to sign in the presence of two witnesses who do not stand to inherit under the will (California Probate Code - Section 6110-6113). California does not require notarization, though this would provide an extra layer of authentication.
