There's a thread that specializes in questions about the free night certificate. Take a look at Annual Free Night Cert from PC Visa in the IHG Rewards forum.

Briefly put, what you're doing is possible but risky. Consider opening two accounts, one for you, one for your partner, instead. Then you'll have two free nights every year to use together.
