Yet the game forces you to pick/pay for them, then allows you to pick places where they'll have nothing to do. Needs to be addressed in future patch: either have a mobile drink "bar" and catering "table" or don't allow me to pick places that won't have those things if they're going to force you to pay them to be at your wedding.

Hired mixologists have always needed a bar to actually do anything' since their were hired mixologists in the Sims games.
This is nothing new.

Yeah, you need to place a bar, refrigerator, stove and a counter. I didn't have to have my sims make the wedding cake. The caterer actually did that. Just place the objects once you get to the destination and it should all work.

I am holding a dinner party. It allowed me to pick a nice house for it... then it asks me to make 3 drinks as one of the goals. But, there is no bar on the lot, and when I try to go into build mode it says the lot is not editable. :\ Really?!?!?!?!

I don't think you are required to hire the caterer, entertainer etc. As I recall even for a wedding it's optional.

That's because you're on a house lot and don't live there. On the community lots you can do it. I know. It's weird. TS3 would do the same thing on someone else's home lot without cheats/mods for it.

Forces? You don't have to hire anyone. I just host my own parties without catering, etc. But I also learned with my first wedding that you had to bring your own cake and provide a place for making drinks. If you search the gallery you will see lots of people have made chapels for sims to be married. These often include cooking and partying areas for the receptions.

I picked park to get married, hired a mixologist (he was there), hired a caterer (he was there), but then at the wedding, when you are trying to get three drinks, take first slice and so on, there's no wedding cake, no food, no drinks, no bar... seriously?!

So don't pick the park to get married b/c they won't bring food or drinks?

I just made my sims drink tap water for the drinks :neutral:

Actually you can bring your own bar, and have the sim make the cake at home, and bring it with you. And I figure you can use the BBQ's for food for the wedding guests?

My boys got married in the park and got gold. The musician never showed, but one of my Sims played guitar himself and made people happy. The mixologist did what she was hired to do and probably too well as I saw a lot of people walking around with two drinks lol The caterer never showed either, though they were hired. I had went into build mode soon as everyone showed up in the park and I added everything IE Fridge, stove, counters, bar, piano, guitar, dresser, etc....I moved benches around by the wedding arch too. The cake was premade at home complete with topper which Travis put in his inventory and brought out later on. I wish they did the cliche but dumb tradition of smooshing cake in each others' faces, but oh well.
