My friend got married this weekend, and so we did a lot of talking about what to expect. She told me that once I get married taxes are going to significantly increase, therefore causing a decrease in my take home pay. I already have (exactly) one third of my paycheck removed, I'd rather not have more. Regardless, I am still marrying Jon...but I just wanted your opinions/experiences. Once you were wed, did [each of] you have to pay more taxes? Thanks ladies!
