Congrats on the wedding.
If you are LA residents, there is no benefit to Married Filing Seperate, unless you have a pre-nup that spells out individual roperty. With LA community property laws, you have to split everythiung 50/50 on an MFS return, and the MFS rules are not beneficial in this situation.
Definetly check your w/h. The married joint tax brackets are NOT double the single brackets at upper income levels. Once you get north of about 100K in taxable income, you pay more married than you would as two singles. My gay clients are learning that this year. =)
