Will mortgage approval change after we get married?

Myself and my fiance are getting married this June. I currently have mortgage
approval in my name. My husband-to-be is self-employed but doesn't have
'books' of more than 2 years.
My question is: will my mortgage approval change once we get married? Will my husband be treated as a 'dependent' by the bank and will the approval amount be reduced as a result?
 
Yes, it will all change, they will factor in his income and debts if he has them. Amount you could borrow is likely to go down. They may in fact ignore any income he has if he is not trading for whatever time they specify but still include his outgoings.
