I need help picking a new card for upcoming wedding expenses to maximize SUB points / cashback. Been out of the credit card game for a while but I am 3/24 with Amex Plat, CFF, C1 VX, + 2 SW cards.

P2 is 2/24 and has CSR, C1 VX, and is looking for another card to put \~15-20K natural in the next couple of months.

I was thinking Amex Gold Biz for the 200K SUB (or CIP) but wanted to get some second opinions. Thanks! Strong income / credit score for P2.

I agree. Probably Amex Gold biz, CIP, maybe regular Venture (elevated offer of 100k miles or 75k + $250 portal credit).

My wife and I did a mix of Chase Ink + amex biz. We planned vendor payments to ideally get close to a sub on a single transaction where possible and just rolled new cards per purchase for the whole process

Depending on planned expenses, ymmv.

We opened:
2 Amex Plat Biz
1 Amex Gold Biz
1 personal Amex Plat
3 Ink Cards
1 Marriott Business Amex
