I would love to if ArenaNet will add new events such as Wedding Event.

In Wedding Event, there are some requirements to be fulfilled to achieve this event. Something like u should have enough gold to pay for the arrangements. This would be a good addition for gold sinking.

These are the things that is required that can be bought for gold:
- Bridal costume
- Groom costume
- Wedding Cost
- Others [such as cake/flowers/etc...]

Scheduling
The event will be scheduled and announced to all players (like how HoH winner is announced) so anyone who's interested can watch (if the couple allowed uninvited to come) and they can offer a gift to the couple. There should be a new place for this and is divided by District per Couple.

The couple has the option to not allow uninvited players to join (for someone may create unnecessary distractions and/or to decrease audience). If the couple doesn't allow un-invited players, they should give away Invitation Letter items (something like Quest Item) to those only they want to come.

Gift Offering
Offering a gift should not use the traditional Trade system but something like Put-a-Gift-In-This-Box system (just like how Xunlai Agent system). Any gift items should have a new desciptrion added like "Wedding Gift given by <player name>". This offering will surely affect community relations. The items given will stay to their Wedding Box (working title).

Wedding Box (working title)
This will work (like how Xunlai Agent works) and is shared by a couple.

Features of being Married
* Instant Transportation - activating this will instantly make urself travel to your partner. I think it would be good idea if u can join the quest/mission where ur partner is questing in the behalf of those who left.
* Wedding Box - another Xunlai Agent and is shared by couple. A good feature for the gold u've paid.

I'm still thinking of new features. New ideas/tweaks are welcome. This just for now.

Perhaps no wedding announcements at all because 99.9% of the population wouldn't care at all

Night Daftshadow · Aug 03, 2005, 07:55 AM // 07:55

wow, you really thought this through. crazy!

Sagius Truthbarron · Aug 03, 2005, 07:55 AM // 07:55

Maybe a message board some place that could show every wedding taking place in the game..

Ashley Twig · Aug 03, 2005, 09:18 AM // 09:18

You forgot the baby shower

vorlon · Aug 03, 2005, 11:11 AM // 11:11

in another game-conquer online, you can get married, share a house(extra storage)and get extra exp when adventuring with your spouse.dont matter what sex you are either.

Imp · Aug 03, 2005, 11:24 AM // 11:24

No in game romances, please!

Go kill each other in pvp or something, thats always romantic.

Obsiedion · Aug 03, 2005, 11:30 AM // 11:30

Why dont you stage one? Serious suggestion...i have seen synced dancing, why not a staged wedding? You could invite ya guild, and stuff, get someone to conduct the ceromony, and people can sit about. I'd go and watch!! ya really only need a few guests, a groom, a bride, and a monk.

No thanks.

Can I have more gaming content instead?

Snuk the Great · Aug 03, 2005, 02:35 PM // 14:35

If anyone of my guild would get merried ingame... I would laugh at him and I would defenetly not waste my time on comming to same fake wedding where two sweaty guys pretend to love eachother...
If you realy want to do one of these fake weddings, go ahead, just dont bother me with it...

You might think this is crazy but there is actually one MMORPG have it. In SkyBlade (a hack n slash MMORPG), at certain level u get married and there's even honeymoon. Then u get a kid to raise, buy armors and weapons (kinda like a pet).

I think this feature is for those couples who plays together. Yea, I knew someone plays it together w/ her wife (or his hubby).

Chenkito · Aug 04, 2005, 05:34 AM // 05:34

Good itea but think about this (this sound like a game call Conquer Online)

1. Most of the girl character are guy players
1b. if that's true, it's scary

2. If they do get marry, out there may be ppl trying to scam you like "can I borrow 2 plat for rune?"

3. If there is marriage, there need to be divorce but again with the scam thing. Once marry, get item, divorce

know what I'm saying?

gwchyros · Aug 04, 2005, 05:40 AM // 05:40

Yup. But everyone knows that it might happen right? So they have the responsibility to whom they gonna get married with.

Or how bout for both sexes, substitute it w/ "Best Friend". Same features as Wedding but no different approach? Its for those who doesn't have partner to be wed with.

A money sink, at the very least, which is what many people have been crying for.

Akilles · Aug 04, 2005, 05:52 AM // 05:52

Or you could just buy the Sims 2

Its more fun to see how big a playboy you can be! Lets see, in one day I hit on a babe and made her my sims girlfriend and even scored! Then while she got in the hot tub after the maid came by and I flirted and scored with er BUT alas my sims g/f walked in and was so mad!

With still enough time in the day left i made up and scored with her again, then made him do it again after and over and over till he was exhausted and hungry. I allowed him to go the the fridge at like 4am to eat but he passed out on the way. The next few days I repeated his "scoring" till he died from being over-s3x3d! LMAO!!!!!

Instead of Wilbur from Little Rock (aka Macho Warrior) and Bubba from Toledo (aka Sexy Kitten) wasting the developers time on code so they can get married online...

... I propose a brand new money sink, and I've done all the legwork.

It's the Feed Edge Fund or FEF for short. It's simple and prestigious. At any time, feel free to contact me in game and give me money not to be less than 10 platinum. At that point, I will type in public chat, "(Person) gave me 10 plat ROFLLMAO!!!1", where ROFLLMAO is an affectionate term. It takes less time than a wedding and will cost you less in the long run.
