[MWS] Bride and Groom not showing up to weddings in planned attire

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
What is your current game version number? 1.86.166.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All of them.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Plan a wedding ceremony. Go to the select style page and plan the outfits for the bride and groom. The bride and groom should have other formal outfits in CAS to see what I'm talking about. Start the wedding; see if the bride and groom show up in the correct attire or something random.
What happens when the bug occurs? Bride and groom show up in a random formal outfits instead of the specific bridal attire I pre-selected when planning the wedding event.... this is not a big deal if you are controlling both of them because you can just change them; but if one is an NPC, you have to go into CAS again to change their outfit again, and that stops the wedding event. You lose out on the money you paid and have to start it all over. The only way to ensure they show up in the right outfit is to delete all their other formal wear, which sucks because then they show up at all formal events in their wedding outfits unless you go back in and restyle them in CAS after the wedding. Also some people in my household change into random clothes instead of the formal ensembles I planned for them in CAS. Not as bad because you can just change the Sims in your household, but why?
What do you expect to see? I expect to see the bride and groom both show up in the attire selected/prepared on the style page when planning a wedding event.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No

Also I removed all mods before I got the pack, deleted them, cleared my Origin cache, restarted, & repaired the game and have not put any back in since. I got the game, downloaded it, updated the patches and all since it came out, and repaired the game twice since then, playing with no mods or cc. This wedding bug happens most of the time, I think the few times they were in the right clothes it was by random chance or because I hadn't given them any other formal outfits so they had no choice. I rarely have my unmarried Sims live together so I'm usually only controlling one of the households, that's probably why it has happened to me at most weddings.

  • I encountered this issue yesterday while planning wedding outfits for my Sims.

    I had planned an outfit for both the groom (a Sim in my household) and the bride (a Sim outside my household). However, only the groom appeared in the correct outfit during the wedding.

    When I opened the wedding planning panel, the groom’s outfit showed up correctly, but the bride's outfit was incorrect in the preview image. Strangely, when I entered CAS to edit the bride, her outfit was actually correct.

    During the wedding ceremony, after the Sims moved in together, the bride suddenly switched to the correct planned outfit without any outfit change animation—it just appeared magically after she joined my household.

    I also attempted to change the bride's outfit using testingcheats, but the planned formal outfit wasn’t available. However, when I entered CAS, the correct outfit was there again.

    Here’s what happened during the wedding:

    Before the bride moved into my household: She wore the wrong outfit.

    After the bride moved into my household: She instantly switched to the correct outfit without any animation.

    EDIT: I think my case is related to this bug: [OPEN] [LS] Sim from Cupid's Corner Gallery won't change after CAS edit - Answer HQ
