Turns out it didn't matter. I was playing this from the groom's family. I should have done things from the bride's family. There was no way for me to have her hold her bouquet, let alone toss it. It almost is steering players to have the couple cohabitating before the wedding just so you can control them both. My groom steadfastly refused to give a spousal kiss, even though the action was listed in his menu. Took ages, but I finally got the couple to slow dance together. So much went wrong, it was even more of a joke than the past weddings I've thrown in this game. Don't get me wrong, I can see the possibilities, if they get the bugs fixed. I totally missed how to have the guests be seated during the wedding ceremony. I tried clicking on the wedding arch. I discovered through reading the lessons, to click on the runner to send different Sims up the aisle and then back down. But what aggrieved me the most was that most of the wedding activities were accessed through clicking on the wedding cake! Who has a cake right there in the wedding hall? Am I supposed to find the cake on my own and click it to have the guests be seated? That's crazy-insane. The logical place would be either the wedding arch or the chairs/pews. I'm pretty exhausted at the moment, since it took all day long just to have the Rehearsal Dinner (which went pretty good all-in-all). That gave me some hope the wedding wouldn't be the unmitigated disaster it turned out to be. Sheesh. I may roll back a save and start from right before they left for the wedding venue. Try this again. Oi! And just for grins and giggles, I may have the bride move in so I can control her.
