Wedding Stuff

There is so much I would change about weddings if given the chance. I see Weddings as a bit of a mini game within the game and a chance for mistakes, disasters and stories to be applied if cleverly done. This isn't to say all weddings should have negative outcomes just some randomness to make it interesting. I think the Simmer (meaning us), should act as the Wedding Planner.
