I leave Hobs Fall Cave with future daddy-in-law and we start the long trek to Riften. (I never fast travel.) Once we get south of Windhelm I equip the shout Storm Call because I love the scenery of the Rift during rain and storms. We arrive at the Bee and Barb and way too many people are talking all at once. I get the jist from Vilja I'm supposed to be at the temple the next day.
Well, it was just after midnight so I got my days mixed up and went to the temple too early. I got a too early message. I waited. Went in and out of the temple and the Bee and Barb a number of times. At one point Vilja's former beau assails me. Head case. I had just finished up making a mess of the Thalmor Embassy and was not heavily equipped for combat. In the process of running away from the nutcase while shooting the occasional arrow at him I shot a town guard. Nuts. Reload.
Back to Hobs Fall Cave. Start the trek again. Daddy-in-law does not cope with irate giants well at all. Nope nope nope. Arriving in the Bee and Barb I try to pay attention a little better. I wait the prescribed period of time. Walking over towards the temple that same beau and a buddy confront me. So I give them a blast of unrelenting force to give me a chance to get my combat gear organized. Only I forgot I had been walking in the Rift. The Storm Call might have blasted every single person in the city. Reload.
10 steps out of the Bee and Barb an assassin sent by Elenwen says hello. I shoot two guards and an innocent bystander this time. Reload.
Come out of the Bee and Barb. Beau and Co confronts me. I still haven't reorganized my inventory. As I do... FACE PALM!!! My wedding outfit and accessories are in Delphines trunk in Riverwood! Reload.
Since timing seemed to be a major issue once entering Riften... Yup. I take daddy-in-law on a side quest to Riverwood from Hobs Fall Cave to collect me goodies, hoping this doesn't screw up the wedding party. Then the long trek across the Rift sideways to Riften. Near the Snow Shod Farm we get two bears and a dragon. I use Unrelenting Force to cope with the bears and Storm Call blasts everyone in sight and... reload.
At the Alchemist's Shack I got smart and set the shout to Unrelenting Force and saved the game. Passing Largashbur I'm busy getting a good bead on the dragon and didn't notice the giant.
Back at the Alchemist's shack I almost break my never fast travel rule. We made it to the Bee and Barb in one piece. Have a chat with Vilja then take a room at the inn. I get dressed for the wedding, taking the required amount of time. Get confronted by irate Beau give him and Co an Unrelenting Force blasting a guard in the process. Reload.
Come out of the Bee and Barb, equipped and ready. In the sunshine my dress looks sucky. I resolve to borrow Vilja's nightgown which is a really classy number. Reload.
Entering the Bee and Bard Vilja isn't giving me the dialogue options to access her inventory. Sigh. Stuck looking frumpy. Just do a 36 hour wait thing and zoom out to confront Beau and Co. KEEERAP! Storm Call... Reload.
Dressed and depressed. Everything in order this time. Ice Form both Beau and Co. and pump about 30 arrows into them. Enter the temple. Finally. The camera takes over and KEERAP! I'm wearing my bow and quiver! Reload.
One more time! Wedding without a hitch. Chat with Vilja and we agree to party at the Bee and Barb before heading home. I follow Vilja. She walks north, straight out of the city. I keep trying to ask her where she is going. The honeymoon dragon appears.
