Does player marriage give benefits comparable to..

My partner just became a PoSI, but I'm not one yet, so we started looking into how player-player marriage works while we still have the simple proposal option, since it's much cheaper and (we think) has the same end result as the fancy one.
Most of the options on the 'Attending to the Matter of Heart' card require a 'seen with' quality--when you marry, you lose your 'seen with' quality and gain a new one. Does marriage unlock a new card option to continue getting relationship-based benefits from each other?
I know that the Jewel Thief and Artist's Model marriages allow you to draw Opportunity Cards that can give you benefits, so my partner and I are trying to figure out if a marriage would be resourcefully worth it? I'm fond of the idea that the ring you get from player marriage gives you +1 of every main stat instead of just one or two, but he's more interested in the card options one gets--and he plays more actively than I do.
Thank you!

More importantly, does it give you tax breaks?

Probably the opposite, really, considering the tax on love stories.

You could betray npc spouses, but because you can't divorce a player yet, I'm not sure if you will be able to. It depends what goes live first, expansion of player marriages, or SMEN.
Also that's a rather awful form of divorce, how could you, you are what's wrong with this city, et cetera and so forth.
Edit: whoops, should've read all the posts before replying

At the moment, there are no benefits to Player/Player marriage besides the +1 to each stat, and, of course, the warm and fuzzy feeling the institution of wedded bliss will (hopefully) bring.
