How do I win a Gold Medal for my Sims 4 wedding?
Step 1: Find a nice location and plan the wedding
Find a nice location for the wedding ceremony and party. Tartosa is a wedding-centric world full of nice places where you can host your Sims’ wedding. Get My Wedding Stories game pack and explore the wonderful world of Tartosa.
If you have Snowy Escape installed, the Center Park in San Myshuno is great for weddings. Well, if you only have the base game, the Municipal Muses museum in Willow creek is a nice location.
By the way, if you have City Living installed, add the Party Place lot trait. This will make the wedding party more fun and help you complete your wedding goals easier.
Once you’ve picked the right location for your Sims’ wedding, start planning the wedding. You can add various activities such as slow dances, toasts, and so on.
Step 2: Complete wedding goals
As soon as the wedding starts, the goals and interactions you have to complete will show up in the left-hand corner. Each interaction you complete gets you precious points.
Here are the main wedding goals in Sims 4:
- Exchange vows and get married
- Have guests watch the ceremony
- Have the bride take the first cake slice
- Have the betrothed share a kiss and flirt with each other
- Have drinks
- Eat food
- Talk to guests for 2 hours
- Thank a guest for coming
Main goal: Get married
Click on the wedding arch to start the ceremony, exchange vows and get married. Additionally, make sure to kiss your spouse after getting married and flirt with each other.
Be sure to place some benches and chairs near the wedding arch so guests can sit down and watch the wedding ceremony.
Secondary goal: Cut the wedding cake
You can either bake your own wedding cake or order it from the patisserie stands in Tartosa. Don’t forget to add a really nice wedding topper, there are plenty of options available.
Have the bride cut the cake after the wedding ceremony. The newly-married couple can feed cake to each other.
Enjoy the food, drinks, and music
Put plates of food on the table and let your guests help themselves. To make sure you have everything you need, it’s best to order food or cook everything beforehand and store it in your Sim’s inventory before the wedding ceremony begins
Alternatively, you can hire a good quality Caterer. A quick word of advice: don’t go cheap, pay some extra Simoleons on a good quality Caterer to avoid any issues. Cheap Caterers often fail to show up at events or bring food.
You can also call the guests to dinner if there’s a group serving prepared.
Add a bar and hire a Mixologist. Don’t forget to hire a bartender when planning the event. Make sure to get the best of their trade.
Play some music in the background so that Sims can dance. You can also hire a highly skilled Musician to entertain your guests.
Interaction goals
Socialize with your guests for a couple of hours. Use friendly interactions, and don’t forget to thank them for coming to the wedding.
