Just want the dress...do I need to have the ceremony first? Same for choco. ^^

Hi all,
I searched this forum and reddit but couldn't find a solid answer. I bought the platinum bracelet so that I can get and dye both versions of the dress. However, do we only get the dress after the ceremony is complete? Or do we get the dress and such before we actually have the ceremony? I'm hoping I can get the dresses before actually getting married in game since that may take some planning. Also, if anyone knows when we get the chocobo, that would be great too! Thanks.

I think you get it before the ceremony, since i saw a lot of players today wearing them and it seems you can't reserve until this friday

Oooh - that would make sense (and I actually see my question is kinda foolish since we wouldn't have the dress to wear during the ceremony if we received it after). Maybe it is the chocobo and such that only comes after the wedding.

This is all I want as well, the vanity items. I guess it's time later to start searching for some person to "marry" on my server.

dress before, choco after =)

You can get the clothes, not the mount.

You also can't schedule any weddings until Friday.

Thanks all for the helpful replies -- guess I will just wait for that choco till the deed is done! (wedding. that is... >.> <.<)

So we won't get the outfits until friday?

You can get the clothes right now by starting the quest. Anything else comes during or after the actual ceremony which you have to schedule. Scheduling won't open until early Friday.

You'll need your partner with the matching level bracelets (gold+gold / plat+plat) to get any extras you might of paid for. Mixing and matching will downgrade your bracelet to the lowest tier of the two. Free+free obviously works but there are no bonuses.

(For example, if you buy plat and your partner is free and you commence the quest, the plat level is downgraded to a free. Basically, the plat bracelet holder wasted their money.)

The hairstyles also unlock when you receive the outfit(s).

Gotcha, thanks so much!

Ohh - one more thing...to start the quest we have to be in a party with someone with a bracelet (same version if you want to get all the goodies) -- but, do we have to actually end up marrying the person we start the quest with?

I've been wondering about this as well. Looks like you'll have to bug someone in order to actually get the dress. So much for getting the dress and trotting off alone killing everything.

*sigh*

Another let down that I was looking forward to doing.

so, im guessing, if both 'partners' purchase a gold/platinum, they both get the 2-seater white chocobo?

Hey Tayolynn,
I made another thread and got more detailed info. Yes, seems we need to bug someone and also that whoever we start the quest with (to get the dresses) is the person we have to end up 'marrying'.

On the platinum plan do you actually get 2 (or 3?) different dresses or sets? Or do you just get the "best" one and it's only one set that you receive?
What can you buy in the npc?

With platinum you get both the gold and the platinum dresses -- only difference between the two is the platinum one has more detailed dyeable areas.
