Traditional here, so I prefer the woman taking the man's name.
At the same time, I do believe that this is a decision best left to each couple.
Over the years, the only ones that are somewhat a pain, are the long hyphenated names.
Something like Smith - Jones is fine.
However, something like Carridemettroppollous - Sans De Santa Maria would be a bit long I would think.
And of course, if their kids married, it might be something like this:
Smith - Jones -- Carridemettroppollous - Sans De Santa Maria
Anyhow, to each their own.
