Totally. :) A solid marriage on the same page with each other is a thing of beauty.
It also helps to marry someone more frugal than yourself. My wife is absolutely incredible at spending money efficiently. She spends less to feed the three of us than I spent to feed myself. And yet we eat radically better (tastier, healthier, more awesome). She'll go on a "shopping spree" for the better part of a Saturday afternoon, come back having spent $50 total on a beautiful dress/skirt, some nice work clothes for her, a few dress shirts for me to wear to work, and scattered other stuff.
One of the best bits of advice I got (indirectly, by doing the opposite of what someone with a terrible marriage said) was to go to bed at the same time as your spouse. Our time in bed, before we're asleep, curled up with each other and talking, is such a great time. We can talk things through, figure out what we're doing in the future (days, weeks, years), and generally just be close and intimate. And we try really hard to go to bed before we're exhausted so we have time to do that.
Solid marriages are awesome. :)
