Weight of Responsibility
The bride-to-be was going through a whirlwind of emotions since Dario announced, seemingly out of nowhere, that he adopted a baby. Any reasonable person would think that such a decision should have been made as a "team," even though they were not yet married! What was even more perplexing was that he had previously expressed not wanting children for a few more sim years, a preference Christin completely agreed with, given her current financial situation, which she, of course, refrained from disclosing.
She was in debt—so much so that she had to take out a loan from Sim City Bank to pay off her student loan! She couldn't seem to see the end of her bills, and a child on top of wedding expenses was the last thing she needed.
Tamika is the little girl's name. She became an orphan after her parents—one of whom was related to Dario's family—perished in a tragic enclosed pool accident. Dario happened to volunteer for the adoption and took on the responsibility of giving Tamika a happy family. It went without saying that he expected his fiancée to become a mother to the girl, especially once she uttered the words "I do."
It was a lot of pressure for one sim, and after much consideration, she expressed her doubts to him. Spending time with Tamika softened her stance on the spontaneity of the adoption and made her appreciate her future husband's generosity even more. They were in it together; she was sure of it now. Dario put her doubts to rest and promised to help with her debt as well.

With her parents even pitching in to help finance part of the wedding, she felt a little more reassured about the future to come. It appeared that everyone had her back!
Rings to Rattles
The wedding preparations were in full swing. The couple decided on a small, intimate ceremony at the City Hall courthouse, followed by a lively reception at a nearby restaurant. Their honeymoon was planned to be at a luxurious resort in Del Sol Valley. Christin and Dario only had one thing left to figure out: their wedding rings. A visit to Magnolia Promenade's mall was in order.
The afternoon turned into a family outing with baby Tamika tagging along. Christin may have been an elementary school teacher, but she was fairly inexperienced with infants. Bonding with Tamika turned out to be more challenging than she thought. The child had been making a fuss, crying and even biting all throughout their time at the mall.
It was in moments like these that Christin felt unsure about the child's compelled adoption.
Dario's playfulness, however, brightened her mood and reminded her of the love she had for her fiancé.
Parenthood with such a wholesome man would be a dream come true, wouldn't it?
They had gotten a lot done that afternoon despite Tamika's naughty agenda. The couple ordered their wedding flowers, purchased their wedding rings and Christin was even convicted to stop by Simstoria' Secret. Dario had been particularly affectionate and flirtatious that afternoon, and his suggestion to step into the lingerie store was a bold, unmistakable statement. Who has a naughty agenda now?!
Tying the Knot
⚠️TW: Woohoo⚠️
Christin and Dario officially tied the knot!!
It was an intimate, yet beautiful ceremony held at Willow Creek's City Hall, and baby Tamika, who was currently staying with her aunt until the end of the festivities, even made an appearance!
There would be plenty of time for the newlyweds to explore parenthood together, but Tamika's tantrums would have to wait a little while, as the day was all about celebrating their union!
Christin, who usually hated dancing, even had the courage to step out of her shell and genuinely enjoyed herself.

The celebration easily stretched into the late hours of the evening, and the time came for the newlyweds to retire to Del Sol Valley's resort for some well-deserved rest and quiet solitude.
They reflected on the incredible day they had, on the first time their lips had met years ago, and on the promising future ahead of them.
It may have all felt dreamlike, but it was their first night as "Mr. & Mrs. Meshram," and they intended on savoring every zesty minute of it.
