2020 Mortgage and marriage

My significant other and I purchased a house in 2020. We're going to get married but would like to do it in the best way possible for our taxes in 2020. Should we get married before the next tax deadline and file jointly with our new mortgage? Should we not marry this year and file as individuals with 50/50 on the mortgage? Or is there a third option I'm not seeing?
