Exchange Vows Grayed Out on wedding arch

i know it’s still so annoying aesthetically but at least it’s not completely broken 😞 

I currently just ran into this issue; I planned the wedding event, but it won't let me exchange vows. It will however let me elope, but that would ruin the event I planned. Is there a fix coming soon?

I've had this problem too. Both times my sim got married I had to use "Exchange Vows" under the Romance Exchange due to the arch not working.

I did some digging and I found that it works just fine on a lot that you own. However, if the arch is on a lot you don’t own, it doesn’t work. Even more strangely, I found out that I can get it to work if I set the arch as one of the Sim’s head and then walk off the lot with it. My educated guess based on these findings is that in order for two Sims to get married under the arch, the following conditions have to be met:

1. If the arch is on a lot, the lot has to be owned by one of the two Sims
2. They both have to be near each other or on the same lot
3. They both have to be engaged to each other.

Therefore, I believe the fix would be to remove that condition that checks if the lot they’re on is owned by one of the two Sims.

I’ve that issue since yesterday, after the last updating. The wedding arc and direct interaction don’t work, the action is canceled once the vowsbegin.

Under even further testing, I found that the option is not greyed out if the Sim's partner is not part of the household.

I also get it for "Get Married To ..." in trying to do the non-pack related weddings.

that's so stupid, because that means that destination weddings are impossible unless you force your sims to move to sulani, or something just so you can have a Beach or Japanese style wedding.

Just popping in to say the same is happening to me. My sims live in the same household and can't get married under the arch during a wedding event (My Wedding Stories or regular wedding) because it says "your fiancee is not around". However, they can get married under the arch if I'm not throwing a wedding event.

I'm having the same issue how has this not gotten fixed in 6 months😡
