I've only had one 'proper' goaled wedding event for my Sims, ever! However, it was during the Trailer Trash challenge I was doing at the time. It was held in the dusty dirt-filled backyard behind their trailer with just two guests. The bride, Bobby Sue, was ready to pop their first child any minute. I had another backyard wedding, with an arch and everything else associated with a goaled wedding, but it wasn't. No guests and the groom made their cake. Difference with this one would be the groom was my Super Sim and extremely wealthy. They married surrounded by flowers under a lantern lighted tree. However, the bride was pregnant during this wedding too and would give birth to my first set of twins in TS4 the next day.
All my other Sims have eloped, most in their underwear next to the bed after their first woo hoo. Or in the bathroom of all places. :D However, there have been a few exceptions when I tried to make it a bit more special.
In my current challenge, the main character, Essa, and her fiancé, Josh, will eventually elope as well. But they will have a wedding arch located in a very romantic and beautiful spot for their wedding. They will throw a big reception later for family and friends.
With all my couples, after the proposal, the female wears an engagement ring if there will be a lengthy engagement. Both will wear wedding bands after the ceremony. The bride always takes the groom's last name, except in Legacies, the Not So Berry and Drifter challenges. In those cases, the groom takes the bride's last name.
A few pics under the spoiler. *Note - I apologize for the quality of some of these screenshots as they're very old and were taken on an underpowered laptop I had at the time.
Happy Simming everyone! <3
