Wedding Alteration Policy
 
      Depending on the wedding package you choose, you and possibly others in your
      wedding party will be entitled to alterations included in the cost of the wedding. The
      purpose of these items is to make your wedding as special as possible and to give
      you a lasting memento of your special day. While you are free to wear these items
      after the wedding, they have been created for the express purpose of making your
      wedding day memorable. They are not created for resale nor to be given as gifts.
      Weddings are offered to give you the opportunity to celebrate your union with your
      life-mate, not to give you a chance to purchase alterations en masse. This is the policy
      pertaining to wedding alterations:
 

      Alteration Guidelines
      Depending on your wedding package, you may be entitled to have a certain number of
      alterations. Please check to see what you are entitled to for your specific package.
      Items created by GMs will be CLOTHING OR JEWELRY ONLY; no weapons, armor or
      containers (backpacks, sacks) will be available, with one exception (see Pende plan
      weddings). As a rule of thumb, the appearance description (when you TAP it) should
      be no longer than 12 words and the look description (when you EXAMine it) should be
      no longer than 25 words in length [but remember, sometimes less is more :)]. Such
      alterations should be in good taste and suitable for a wedding ceremony.
 

      Pockets
      If your wedding package includes a pocketed item, such a pocket will reflect the
      common-sense size of a pocket found commonly on your item (i.e., you can't fit a chest
      in a shirt pocket). Pockets will only be made in clothing, not jewelry, and only in those
      articles of clothing that would be reasonably found to have a pocket (not ribbons, for
      example). All pockets will be locked in an open position regardless of button, clasp or
      hook on the item. Items considered clothing include cloaks, capes, boots, hats,
      dresses, vests, sandals, pants, shirts, skirts, robes and any other item that can
      reasonably be considered clothing.
 

      Resources for Alterations
      The wedding couple MUST supply any and all gems, furs and animal parts. If you wish,
      you may supply an item that contains these add-ons, but that item will be destroyed in
      the process of salvaging the add-on. For example, if you wish to add a diamond to
      your wedding band, you may either buy a diamond from a gemshop or, if you have a
      teardrop diamond pendant, you may offer the pendant to salvage the diamond,
      knowing that the pendant and anything associated with it will be destroyed and
      unsalvageable. This also goes for special materials such as silk, satin and velvet, etc.
      Torn scraps of these materials can be bundled and offered for alteration purposes, the
      amount of each to be set by the wedding coordinator.

      You can also offer any clothing item you already own to be altered, including auction
      items, as long as they are not changed from their original purpose (i.e. you can't alter a
      scripted sack into a cloak). Your coordinator will supply the actual wedding bands,
      rings, armbands, etc, in your choice of metal as long as that metal exists in-game (i.e.
      no platinum) as a wedding present to you and will add whatever gems you supply, as
      well as an inscription if you wish. Furs, pelts, and animal parts can be dyed to
      reasonable colors (no neon green), but unless precious metals are offered in the
      correct quantity, any color denoting them will be adjusted accordingly (silvery, golden).
 

      Additional Perks for Fancy Weddings
      If you choose either the Tessera or the Pende plans, you will have the option of adding
      additional wedding party members.

      For the Tessera plan, you may add members for 250 dinars each which includes, for
      the ladies, a gown/dress and flowers. For the gentlemen, a shirt/tunic and a
      boutonniere.

      For Pende plan weddings, for 500 dinars each, the ladies receive a gown/dress,
      flowers, a headpiece and shoes. The gentlemen get a shirt/tunic, pants, shoes and a
      boutonniere. All items bought in this manner must be identical. If two additional
      bridesmaid places are purchased, for example, they will both receive identical
      dresses, flowers, etc. Pende plan weddings can buy down to the 250 dinar plan if they
      wish.

      In addition, those Premium members who choose the Pende plan are entitled to an
      altered container as one of their alterations for use during the wedding. The container
      should be appropriate for a wedding and will be "small sack" sized in your choice of
      container. The container can be closeable as long as the base container used is
      normally closeable. This is in addition to your pocketed clothing item. Limit is one
      container per premium bride or groom, maximum of two.
 
 
 

      Let's Work Together!
      While you are free to ask for any alteration you wish, the ULTIMATE DECISION
      whether you receive the alteration in its exact form rests with the WEDDING
      COORDINATOR and his/her support team. If the coordinator cannot make your
      alteration exactly as you want it, every effort will be taken to get it as close to your
      original idea as possible. If you are unhappy with the alteration, tell your coordinator
      what part of it is displeasing to you, and be specific. Often what you want and what is
      possible to get is just the matter of a word or two, and the coordinators are willing to
      work with you to get what you want, but compromise is often the case. We will do our
      best to make you happy, but if the item isn't exactly what you want, please keep an
      open mind and know that the coordinator is also bound by policy and cannot cross
      over the line. Although you have every right to speak up if you are unable to get what
      you want, THE DECISION OF YOUR WEDDING COORDINATOR IS FINAL. Your
      coordinator will make every attempt to be in touch with you about these alterations (as
      long as you're available) to discuss changes. Remember that these items are for a
      wedding ceremony, not for battle. So if your bloodstained shirt with the words, "Deth to
      All!" is rejected, you'll know why.
 
 

Disclaimer
This policy will NOT take into account any prior items either bought, sold or created in the past by wedding coordinators or their support teams, GMs, merchants and/or
alterers. The fact that someone may have gotten a certain item in the past has NO BEARING on this policy and any debates pertaining to such items will be handled
appropriately.
