Instead of giving people 18 items to alter.. give them a 15 minute alter session each. People want to alter their own things.

That was my biggest problem with the cathedral package was that I didn't want random clothes. I wanted my cute ebon gate scripted dress altered into my wedding dress and my satchel that I carried around all the time altered into something for a wedding, my scripted sandals altered, my piercing jewelry earrings altered, my hair jewels altered for the wedding.. etc. So I kept getting my wedding stuff altered at merchants and couldn't think up 18 items I wanted for the wedding other than the rings.

It would save on the back and forth too. You get what you get in the 15 minutes (or whatever is deemed appropriate). If you deepen 50 things, fine.. that's what you did. If you alter 3 awesome joola dresses, that's what you choose. So GM time is saved in that they only have to dedicate 15 minutes each to the items and then it's all about getting the wedding perfect.

The person wins too. They get what they want. They can prioritize what they want in their session. The couple could get WAY more items than 18, or less.. depending on them.

Overall win win..

It would work the same way as a normal 15 minute session... the GM would say. "Can't work on it".. or "I can try but it might take up your whole 15 minutes".. I didn't say the GM had to work on everything offered no matter what.

Actually, you can (or could), exchange 2 created alters for one alter to one existing item provided that it was alterable. The limit was two of your own supplied items used for a total cost of 4 newly created alters. Unfortunately, Ghrayce's dress was not one of those allowed to be altered. It took a bit of effort, and being premium helped, but I was able to get the gown I wanted to use altered.

I ended up getting a pair of Ysanio pants and one of those scripted fancy hats done for Murkshev and it was well worth giving up two alters for.

See if we could trade all 18 items for 9 items using our own items that'd be great too. The issue being that people are increasingly wanting to fix their own stuff not make brand new functionless stuff. :)

Thanks for considering the idea.

Oh, I remembered my other suggestion that I kept thinking about in the pre-wedding planning. GS is all eastern standard time.. except wedding stuff, for some reason. Your invitations are in central. It's not a huge issue, but it's so arbitrary and random and throws a few people off.
