Marriage scripting friggin nightmare

I cant remember everything cuz im in my first playthrough but here it is.

 

I became a thane in Whiterun and bought Breezehome. I got a chick from the Jarl as a sidekick in the deal. She proved worthless to my sneaky-type character, always rushing in and getting us detected. We were high in the hills when a pair of ogres attacked. I cast a fireball at the wrong time and killed everyone. Including the chick. I left her there.

 

I went solo for a while til I found out you could actually marry in the game. Ok. I get the amulet and hit the bow/arrow place where Jenassa hangs out. I recruit her for 500 and we do slightly better as a team, nailing ruins and stuff. I'm a vamp at this point now, so she's meat anyways. Eventually I decide I'll marry her just for the heck of it.

 

So we announce the wed to the dude in Rift-whatev. He says we got all day tomorrow. Except im a vampire and I dont have all day. So I push time since were indoors and the wed happens at something like 3am. Boom, the dead chick (from the ogre attack) drops dead (again) at the front door of the Mara chapel. Freaks everybody out. Jenassa splits, telling me to talk to the priest to reconcile. I try talking to him, no dice. He's telling me I need to go. It's a mess.

 

THEN... I still have this Mara amulet. So I hit some backwater meat market and suck a girl in. And we get successfully married. FREE BLOOD is what I'm thinkin now. And I tell her "No, we can live at my house, Breezehome" cuz she was all talking about living with her parents and stuff.

 

I've been at Breezehome for enough time to hit stage 4 vamp and no wife.

 

w.t.f.(!!!)

Obviously, you are not a ladies' vampire.

 

Right? Somehow I broke the marriage scripting by allowing that one companion to stay dead wayyyy up in the hills. Then hiring another one much later on. And I didn't even have Mara's Amulet until *after* all that. Weirdness!!

Yeah, I had this problem too, with dead Housecarl turning up at my wedding. I just kept reloading an autosave, and trying again and again. After like 4 attempts I got Lydia to not turn up about my wedding. About the vampire thing, though, I don't know. I haven't played as a vampire yet.

Oh m g that's very funny!!! I thought I was being tortured by bugs and glitches but you had it way worse than me!!

 

MARRIAGE IS SO GLITCHED AND UNSATISFYING IN THIS GAME!

 

My moan about marriage is my hubby doesnt call me wife whenver I accidently shoot him with lightening, he calls me 'sister'!! (Im just not into that kind of thing!) Oh and his shop doesnt work for me either. :( Oh and he keeps getting lost, I thought I was shot of him so I dusted off my amulet of mara and stuck it on and went home for some stuff and there he was sleeping on the floor of the basement!! Not the bed!!

 

My rl hubby thinks he feels guilty for leaving me alone in the wilderness and so to punish himself has decided to stay on the floor. No big loving welcome home. He has even stopped cooking for me. So now what good is he?

 

I am so going to leave this game until it has been fixed.
