Hi all!
So i was going to have my sims wedding at the park but then i realized that i cannot drag the buffet table and balloons into my backpack. I dragged a boombox and i worked. Can you not drag big items? How can i get buffet tables and balloons there? Somebody help, my sims loves to party but parties are unsuccessful cuz she cant bring anything but a picnic basket and i dont want a wedding with just that

Go to Options/Edit Town. Click on the Lot/edit and add the party items you want. Save.
Return to game.
In Riverview, my Sims love to have parties at the Waterhole. It's a pre-built lot with bars (several), a big stereo, a picnic table and grill out the back. My Sims never bring party stuff with them and there have been at least 2 Epic wedding parties there.
Personally, I give almost every sim the Legendary Host reward very early in their life (usually first 5000 points) because parties are the easiest way to quickly get 20 friends and never have to worry about decaying friendships again. With Legendary Host reward, it really doesn't matter what you do, the party is going to be awesome. You can call a party and go to sleep, if you want to, I imagine, although I confess I've never done exactly that.
Even without the legendary host reward parties are still pretty easy. My characters are usually charismatic, or friendly, or party animals, etc. A lot of character traits make party-hosting rather painless. In any event, if you make sure to introduce/greet each guest and have music playing where your the host is at (because the guests go to where the host is), I think it'll go pretty well regardless. I never worry about providing food. Ever. If there's music, the guests can dance. I try real hard to have at least minimal interaction with every guest, and after that I concentrate on the guests I most want to improve relations with. With Legendary Host reward that's enough, without it I try a little harder but it's still basically the same, and my parties are almost always successful no matter what happens (even when there's a fight and/or rude behavior going on and/or some inconsiderate old fart dying at my party).
For Riverview- Thats the one you download right? I have it if thats the case but ive never even seeing the waterhole! thank so much! cant wait to go home and play ...yes im at work lol!
