King's Weddings! 06/06/2008 03:48 PM CDT
It's my pleasure to announce that after much consideration and deliberation, King's Wedding packages will shortly be on sale once again! They will still be extremely rare, and packages must be purchased and ideas submitted at least -six- months before the desired event date.

And now, for the juicy bits!

This package is for the couple who wants something new and unique, designed especially for them.

Like the Queens' wedding package, this includes:
* a pair of custom wedding bands, bespelled to return to their owners when other people try to pick them up as well as to allow the adoption of your spouse's last name
* a custom wedding cake
* up to three custom gifts for your guests
* flowers for the entire bridal party, to include a tossable bouquet for the bride

Additionally, the Kings' wedding package includes:
* 20 items, of which:
o 5 can be scripted via EzAtmo, EzScript, or regularly available in game verbs (ie, feature-hiding cloaks, lockable containers)
o 5 can be jewelry
o 5 can be pocketed
* a custom cog-size ship -OR- permanent custom features for the couple
* 2 permanent custom pretitles -- one for each person of the couple
* a 10-room custom wedding area
* custom food and drink, including up to 6 new food or drink flavors

Last but not least, a special Wedding Coordinator will be on hand during the ceremony to add those special touches that only we can add.

Keep your eyes on the forum announcements for more information! If you have any questions (price and availability questions will be answered in later posts), feel free to email DR-WEDDINGS@PLAY.NET. :)

>> permanent custom features for the couple

Bugger. The one thing I've always wanted and it's only for King's Wedding packages.

Hopefully there'll be another (expensive) IG way to get these for people without a thousand dollars to blow on a textwedding. :x

What would be a custom feature?

Custom features would be a complete (if you like) replacement of your current features -- a good example would be what you see with many GMNPCs. Here's an example (that I blatantly stole from an NPC):

You see Captain Herrick Iocaste, a Mountain Elf.
He has an alert face with a pointed chin and a humorous mouth. Dark brows slant sharply above his eyes, one dark ocean blue, the other concealed beneath an embroidered eyepatch. A jagged scar runs from his jaw, under the patch, to disappear at the hairline in the white streak which mars his wavy black hair. He is pale-skinned, with a slightly weathered complexion and is below average height with a lean, agile build.
He appears middle-aged for an Elf.
He is in good shape.

Yes, this too.

And I bet it's going to be more like $2k rather than $1k, if not even more than that.

I got temporary custom features as part of Ysselt's King's wedding package.

Slightly tilted bluish-grey eyes peer coolly out from an oval face with a narrow slightly pointed nose and smooth creamy white skin. Half of her long, fine hair has been drawn away from her face and bound in a tiny silver knotwork clasp, revealing delicately pointed ears and falling to the small of her back in a sheet of pale silvery-gold.
Her body is gracefully slender and willowy.
She appears to be several inches under average height for an Elf.

Just to give you another idea of how they do things. (I really want this done permanently.)

Looks like someone snagged the first slot for the new King's Weddings. Now they're sold out. I was hoping to catch a glimpse at the price.

I know people are throwing around that they're about 1k, but did anyone get a chance to confirm it or find out the official amount?

Inquiring minds want to know.

I kind of want to know too. $1k was just a price I threw out there based on old estimations of what a King's Wedding package would be.

Saw it before it was bought. It was $2000.

Whoever that is needs to donate to my daughter's college fund, and my get-out-of-unsecured-debt fund. And if they so desire to, they should contact me at "carpenoctem5@yahoo.com" Okay, thank you. ;-P

I'd expect more for 2 grand.

Like a complimentary full service tune-up for your vehicle, a new computer, circle boost, a ship (think a fifth rate frigate such as USS Constitution), custom features, uber-cool weapons with sweet stats and a multi-room home.

Othrewise, it is just a joke.

Obviously it was worth it to someone, cause it was snatched up quickly.

I'd hate to be the one to explain to the missus that I spent two grand on a text wedding, especially when she files for a real life divorce.

Interesting. I won a custom look at Vegascon something like 5 years ago. Over the years I've gone through different GM's trying to cash it in but have had no luck. I basically gave up figuring they had offered something they just couldn't actually do.

Was it really $2000.00? That's just silly. Nevermind, I don't want one that bad.
