Lost all Furniture

So I was playing my game, had my Sim go on an excellent date, where he proposed, and the next day his fiancé came over and they had a gold-level marriage (I never get gold on events!). They moved in ...

    @PipMenace  Did you save your progress between the time your sims married (and got gold on the event) and when they moved?  If you did, you might be able to get back to that point by recovering one of the game's automatic backup saves.  Here's how:

    If you don't have a backup from the right time, but you do have an earlier one (from before the marriage), you could always save the house to the in-game library and place it in the current save.  Then you could move your sims to it, increasing the family funds via cheat if necessary, and see whether the move works out this time.  Or you could figure out what they're owed and just cheat the money directly.

    Since this has already gone wrong once, it's a good idea to save before any moves from now on.  In fact, it's a good idea anyway; you can never be too careful.

@puzzlezaddict Sadly, I did not have a save from between the marriage and the move, but I had one from just before and was able to transfer their stuff through the library.

And yes, definitely going to be more careful about saving before & after major events from now on!
