I decided to buy the pack on sale since I heard it had been fixed and I have to say I am really disappointed. Firstly I want to know why there is still so much micro managing (which sims barely listen to). Why did they not remove some of the celebration activities and have them happen automatically? For example when my sim goes to exchange vows or walk down the aisle why don't they just make it so sims sit by themselves? Why do we need to have an option to say take your seats? Or when they go to cut the cake can't the sims just gather around the cake instead of us having to click on an option for them to go there? The options don't seem to work in the first place??I understand the options to walk down the aisle or who to send down first and I like the idea of this but some of the options should just be automatic. Also it didn't help that the weather was hot on my sims wedding day and everyone kept changing to their hot weather outfits. Are there any mods to make the weddings seem more automatic? Should I just download a mod to have the old weddings back? Also all the new party options are basically the same lmao. There really is not much point to them as well.What's everyone's thoughts on this pack?

Very annoying, I was looking for some mods to fix it but they all seem out of date now. I think it really just is an AI issue at this point.

I've had two weddings since buying it and had a couple issues. None major, but disappointing. Some my fault. I forgot to take pictures or ones I did take were messed up. There are two wine bottle things in the church by whoever made it and when clicking, the guest go to both in two seperate rooms, which I didn't like and have to remember to delete a wine set before the weddings. Once, somehow they didn't wear the right things. Little stuff, but just upsetting. Still I like the whole set and world.

In some aspects, I'd love to dump MWS, but keep the world. The cfity hall option doesn't seem to work and there seems to be leftover socials straying into new games like "ask to be flower pal..." and such when they are already married.I would just like an option in the packs sub options to disable the MWS story stuff while keeping the world useful.

I always felt the wedding rehearsal should have been a system to tell your sims what to do during the actual wedding and a time to adjust any wrong outfits. The actual wedding should have only required a player to click things like start wedding, start wedding toss and start a toast and everything you set up in the rehearsal would happen as if you hit a play button. Then rehearsals would at least have a purpose and players can focus on taking screenshots of the scripted wedding.

I've been a bit of a completist--I own every DLC except for Batuu, but the one purchase I've made that I could easily lose is MWS. The world, pretty as it is, is super dead and the B/B with the exception of the tea set is rarely used by me. Weddings are a crapshoot. I've had a few semi successful ones, and I find the biggest thing they all have in common is the venue. A venue with all indoor space, no ocean nearby (or they all change into swimsuits), clear pathways to and from all activities, and only one option for each activity (one dance floor, one arch, one champaign bucket, etc) has worked best. And even then, I haven't been able to get everyone to gather for my couple's first dance. I avoid cakes altogether.

So my first wedding with MWS was a disaster..

At the beginning it was totally broken but now it is mostly fixed. I dont think that the gameplay is very engaging though. It might be useful if you want to simulate a dream wedding for your sims but it is no fun or challenging at all. I still think the strongest part of this pack is the world of Tartosa.

Well..it's not completely broken like it was when it first released....but it is still a mess.I found the outfit changing an issue as well, very very annoying.
Not sure what mods are out there, to be honest I think there is only so much you can do with mods for this 'gameplay', I think the A.I is just too poor in the Sims 4. So they really shouldn't have made a pack like this in the first place.
As most people have said - The world is nice (not what should be the best feature of a gameplay pack but there we go)

I'm probably wrong because I don't play on PC but their is a MC Commands if you wanna change the outfit. I'm a console player so I don't know about it.

I have this issue also, it's funny because the options show up on the sim he married..
