I used my Amex Plat for peace of mind and 1x points. They give accident/return protection on whatever you buy for sometime, and 1 extra year of warranty on stuff. In my case, I was faxing my card details to all the vendors, so I just didnt want to use a card that gave too basic of a protection against fraud. So dont just get carried along with the extra spending 
Congratulations again!
Congratulations again!

Thread transferred to Credit Card Programs because the discussion pertains to using credit cards to generate miles and points.

I'm currently planning mine.
I'll be hosting my reception at a hotel. Will that charge be coded as a restaurant, hotel or other? This charge will be hefty (at least to me) so how do I maximize the rewards?
I'm already spreading the rest of my spending (honeymoon, rings, etc) on my recent A-o-R cards (Citi AA, BoA/BoH)

Fairmont.
I would have signed up for the Chase Fairmont card but there aren't that many hotels in my desired travel destinations.
