How Soon Is Too Soon to Purchase the Bride's Bouquet?
I had my young couple go off to Tartosa to taste cakes. I had the groom find the trailer that sells flowers. He bought her bouquet and then gave it to her as a gift before they left. This was Sim days...
@GlacierSnow, no, you aren't misunderstanding, but rather she was mistaken.
Her implication was that the cake is the only way to get guests seated for the ceremony, and that is not correct. The "Ceremony Activities" sub menu wherein that interaction sits is available on literally every wedding related object. The Arch, the Aisle, the seating, the buffet table and even...the ground. Yes, the bare ground.
The only wedding activities that are tied to a specific object are those tasks that actually do need that object. So you can't cut a cake without a cake, you can't have a toast without a toasting bucket, etc. But all of the rest are in a sub menu called "Ceremony Activities" which shows up on almost everything during a wedding.
You can see it below in the images which show me just clicking the bare ground:
