Any Wedding Plans for Launch? - Phoenix Freeshard

I remember ages ago on live, having my character marry another character by Moon lake in Bri Leith. Been playing together for years in a guild and it was pretty corny but cool at the same time. Took the same last name and had cake etc.

Can I cross realm marry Tamlan @romulus perhaps?

I am not going to stand idly by while you marry one of those... creatures who killed me and my entire family and friends.
You just go to your room and think about what you have done.

Lurikeen's are so boney. I like a full figured Briton girl.

Sorry Dominus,
I love you, I'm just not In Love with you. Besides, I'm a Highlander and my heart is already spoken for. Someday you'll find that special Briton just for you.
Can we still be frenemies?

If you're looking for a priestress...I did it back then on live as well

I had a Wedding on Uth 1 and just asked Abydos to be the Priest

So i guess if the storm cooled down after launch give it a try!

Internal staff rumors say that Gruenes_Schaf totally likes to be a priestess, ah a priest.

I remember when I first starting playing over a decade ago I stumbled across a wedding in Camelot. I sat in and wondered what the heck was going on. I stayed until the end of the ceremony just to give the bride/groom 20g (which to me, having just started the game, was a lot!). I always assumed that the couple got married IRL and just made it official ingame, and I'm just now finding out people also did it just to celebrate friendship - which I think is great.

Sure, if you want a traditional wedding. Why not Bishop Kustan perhaps?

Personally, I always thought Lady Winchell would be a better officiator. Though if you are planning an x-realm wedding, you had better start looking outside of Camelot. I once attended an x-realm wedding at Hadrians Wall. The bride was a cleric in my guild, and the groom was a kobold. I'm not sure how that was going to work out, but It was all fun until the groom's guildies (from Midgard) crashed it.

Yup that's a problem with x-realm anything. Can't really trust your friends or your enemies. The in-game funerals were crashed/bombed too!

I got married twice on Live. Though the first marriage was never actually annulled. ><

Yep, went to one of those, too. And yeah, it ended in bloodshed. Still, someone cut a 20 minute video of the event and put it to Enya, so it was a fitting tribute.

I remember a few funerals on Avalon (DE/EU), none of them got bombed afaik and people formed big crosses with their characters, very cool and memorable moments, kudos.

I didn't even remember this story anymore until reading through this thread ^^

i was a stupid teenager leveling my last levels on the first char I ever got to 50 in daoc, when someone joined me in my group and did some RP.
It was quite fun but also a little weird, but hey...it was far more fun than soloing again.

She (in game) would always sit on my lap when resting and start cybering with my dwarf skald and I agreed to marry her in game yaddayadda...it was weird and I just wanted to kill albs/hibs but didn't want to offend her when I noticed how much work was being put in.
I gave my best RP try during the wedding that took a few hours but at least it wasn't as weird as being alone for her sexy talks ^^

I decided to quit DAoC a few weeks later and she was crushed, and I actually gave out my phone number because he refused to do much OOC talk ingame.

It took me almost 3hours because I actually felt sorry. Me writing OOC stuff in game he was used to, but quitting the game ws like me suiciding in front of her (him). He didn't know what to do, for him that was an actual marriage he was RPing in and he didn't want to RP a mourning wife. In hindsight he went through the different stages of grief as there were so many different approaches. Can't I play for at least a few more weeks, a few hours per week, so we can find people to RP our kids/have kids in game before my character dies? His last resort was trying to buy my account but that would also only work in some really complicated ways (that I don't remember) and account selling is something that I don't do out of principle.

Looking back I am torn between how lucky I was that didn't go really bad and I wasn't stalked/or similar....but on the other hand I also still feel a little sorry for that dudes gaming soul maybe getting crushed that day

So short answer: no, not planning any in game weddings anymore ^^
