Statistics show that 90% of people are not as happy as they were when they first married just 4 years after taking their vows. Scary.
If you're going to have kids, it totally makes sense to get married. Kids should have a stable home. Otherwise, I'm not sure what advantages there are except aquiring residency in a country.
On a side note, in the United States if you and your spouse both make good money and file your taxes separately, you'll pay even more in taxes than if you were each single.
