Choose a card in both your names that offers either cash back or free airline miles. Most couples will be spending quite a lot of money in the year before their wedding and can use this opportunity to get their honeymoons for free. Other added benefits include easy tracking of expenses, and ensured joint responsibility should the wedding get called off.
But be sure to read the fine print! Make sure you choose a card that doesn't have high annual fees, and that you can pay off in advance without penalty. Also, in order for this scheme to work, you have to be paying off the full balance every single month. Otherwise, you'll pay far more in interest than you'll get back in cash or miles. So if you know that's your goal, you also have to stick to your wedding budget.
As a bonus, charging your wedding can help you learn to discuss your finances, and prepare for a future where you also regularly pay off your credit cards. Read more about how engagement and wedding planning can help prepare you for marriage.
