So I was just about to go to bed when I started thinking about skyrim and a thought occurred to me. We are allowed to get married and such but I for one have heard nothing about weddings.

Are weddings confirmed?

Simple enough question, if anyone knows anything please let me know, I'm rather curious as to how a wedding would work in Skyrim.

Lolololol should of just used the search button found a few topics there but no confrimation?

I remember reading something about a ceremony... that's all I got. :/

Haven't heard anything specific on it.

Yes, but you need a Kinect. It doesn't work unless you wear a wedding dress though.. so..

I highly doubt it dude

Does wedding ceremonies even exist in TES universe?

First paragraph.

Oh HEEEYEEEELLL NOOO! That'll totally ruin it! Then it'll be like, "Honey, will you take out the trash? Honey, will you rub my feet? Honey, the garden needs tending. Honey, will you quit drinking that ale and feed and walk the dog? Honey, I think I want children." And then later, it'll be like, "Honey, go to the store and buy me some ice cream and pickles...NOW!!!! BEFOREICHOPYOURHEADOFFWITHYOURAXE!!!!!"

And you know it'd end in divorce pretty quickly because that's what most marriages do... But probably in Skyrim, you'd have to enforce the "until death do you part" clause.

I don't think Nord's do ceremonies. They just kinda move in together. At least, that's the way things seemed to be in Bruma.

There was also a book with a Orc wedding, which was a different type of ceremony to a human wedding. Cant remember the name of it though, but i do remember she was a bandit/thief and the Imperial Guard who looked after her in her cell, wanted to/did marry her.

known facts
same gender marriage is enabled
spouse will move in dovahkiins home
spouse will cook food for dovahkiin
spouse will companion dovahkiin and help with quests

marriage questions
# if a married npc spouse is killed not by the dovahkiin will dovahkiin beable to marry widow ?
# each npc has biased so does this mean not all will accept marriage regardless how much dovahkiin try ?
# what are the perks in mariage othere than spouse companion that cooks for you ?
# is there devorce and re mariage ?
# if spouse die can dovahkiin remarry ?
# will bethesda promote anything about elder scroll marriage beyond saying any gender can marry ?
# will each race have it's tradictional ceremonial marriage or will it be only nord tradition ?
# will spouse possessions and home become dovahkiins possessions as well ?

I think it follows the style of typical Nordic weddings:

- Find pretty girl
- Bash in head
- Take home
- Make babies

At least that's how my marriage worked.

Ah, finally. A truly enlightened view that opposes today's completely commercialized weddings embodied by vastly overpriced diamonds made artificially expensive by the De Beer cartel.

And that's probably how I'll get my next one.

Marriages included, I just want to know more about how NPC relationships work. All I've heard is that you "do stuff for people to become friends". So I do a small task (e.g. Deliver a package to a different town) and they become my friend? Complete a second task, and they're now romantically interested in me? Sounds a little too much like Fable 3 to me, a system I hateed completely. :s

Then once you marry... what then? Can I have children? If so, will they grow up or be children forever? What else do spouses do besides cook and quest? :s

What if he/she struggles?

Ah, interesting point. I'm assuming there will at least be some short rite. But if you just go up to some woman and pop the question, and she calmly says "Yes, I accept. I saw a mudcrab the other day" then I'll say: "this is silly"

Repeat step 2 as needed.

Indeed, liberal application of step 2 would solve many problems in Skyrim.
