Can You Cancel a Wedding in The Sims 4?

Published in Sims 4 Wedding 2 mins read

Yes, you can cancel a wedding in The Sims 4 if you decide not to proceed with the ceremony. This can be done both during the event itself or before it even begins.

How to Cancel a Wedding in The Sims 4

There are a couple of ways to cancel a wedding, depending on whether the ceremony has already started or not.

Canceling During the Ceremony

If your Sims are already in the midst of their wedding event, at the critical moment when they are exchanging vows and sharing their first smooches, a specific prompt will appear on your screen.

  • Step: When this prompt appears, offering options related to the ceremony's progression, choose the option that effectively says "OK" or confirms termination.
  • Outcome: Selecting this option will immediately terminate the wedding event.

Canceling Before the Ceremony

If you haven't yet initiated the wedding event, you have even simpler options to prevent the marriage:

  • Option 1: Simply do not host the wedding event you may have planned.
  • Option 2: Have the engaged Sims break up their romantic relationship before the ceremony is scheduled to begin. This will naturally prevent the wedding from taking place.

What Happens When You Cancel a Sims 4 Wedding?

Canceling a wedding in The Sims 4 has specific consequences and no major technical drawbacks.

Aspect Description
Event Status The wedding event will immediately conclude, and your Sims will not become married during that specific ceremony.
Rewards Your Sims will not receive any rewards that are typically associated with a successfully completed wedding event.
Game Stability Canceling the wedding does not cause the game to crash, nor does it lead to any significant or "awful" bugs.

In summary, while you can stop a wedding mid-ceremony or prevent it from starting, be aware that you won't gain the benefits or rewards that come from a completed marriage event.
