We haven't hid spending, but FYI have yours, mine, and ours money. This gives us the freedom to do what we want with the part that isn't joint money (can be something the other thinks is wasteful/silly), yet still be in agreement about joint money and joint savings goals.
If spending habits of spouses are different and you have a generous enough budget to do something like this, I think it's a good way to go. We set up the budget before we got married concerning joint contributions, etc.
