miss_ytOn the Discworld MUD, there are functions that allow you to set up family relationships with other people. You can have a family name, which has to be paid for in MUD-money regularly, or just have the family relationships. You can also get married. There are wedding chapels here and there around the Disc, and places to buy engagement and wedding rings, as well as shops where brides can get lovely clothing for That Special Day. There's a couple of custom clothing shops in one city that make wedding gowns and veils.
Now, here's something funny - someone I know on the MUD is planning to have one of these MUD-weddings, and she asked me to serve as a bridesmaid. Her name's Faye (her character's name is, anyway) and I have a thief alt named Faiye. We're both sort of based on the Cowboy Bebop character, you see. After a bad first step when I jokingly called her my evil twin and got her mad - she had, after all, had that character longer than I'd had mine - we made up and are now good MUD-friends. Still, I didn't expect that she'd want me to be a bridesmaid! It's kind of cute. Maybe I can go to the ceremony as Faiye and then switch to Priscilla, my wizard, and use magic to cater the party, if she's having one.
