Hi Aaron, I'll give you some general guidelines and you can ask more questions if these don't cover it.
I probably wouldn't make one bucket just for your wife. All transfers are by default left unassigned but if you are tracking money saved then you may create a Savings bucket and assign that bucket to your outgoing transaction from your savings account. Anytime you want to track something, create a bucket for it, set a planned amount, allocate income to it, and assign transactions as you spend that money.
