My wife and I opened our first joint account as soon as we got engaged. We wanted somewhere joint to put engagement gifts and start functioning as a couple (even though we weren't physically living together until after the wedding). It was the right decision for us and if I had to do it again, I'd do the exact same thing and advise others to do the same. That said, it obviously doesn't work in every case.
