Have you met someone with whom you would love to spend your life with in Erinn? The world of Mabinogi offers a beautiful Wedding Hall in which users who wish get married can do so. Here, you will learn about weddings of each race. 1. Races That Can Marry
A wedding can take place between two players of the opposite or the same genders.
You can marry a character of a different race. Of course, two characters from the same race can get married, but a Human character and an Elf character, or a Human character and a Giant character can also get married! However, because Elves and Giants oppose each other, an Elf character and a Giant character cannot get married.
* Once you are married, you may change the gender of your character when he/she is reborn.
2. Location of the Wedding Hall
Erinn has a Wedding Hall available for all races.
Find the Wedding Hall designated for the race to which your character belongs.
1) Humans
The Wedding Hall designated for the Humans is located in the Emain Macha Cathedral. Here, only a wedding between Humans can take place.
2) Elves/ Elf + Human
For the Elves, the Wedding Hall is located in the northern region of Filia. A wedding between two Elves or an Elf and a Human can take place here.
Because it is an outdoor Wedding Hall, the time and weather may affect the wedding. Special perks include beautiful fireworks at night time.
3) Giants/ Giant + Human
The Wedding Hall for the Giants is located at the house of the Giants’ leader in Vales. Here, a wedding between two Giants or a Giant and a Human can take place.
