There is no marriage at all between Muslim female and non Muslim man according to basic Islamic rules, even if go for a civil marriage. Such marriage can be valid in court of law but it has no validity at all in Islam. If the man became a Muslim then you can both initiate an Islamic marriage Nikah with Mahr. Before such Nikah, you and him are never married.

Wassalam.
