Hickory14: Hey everyone, so my guy is getting pretty old and I want to marry him to have children that will carry on my career. Just wondering if anyone could inform me on how to get married in this game. Help be greatly appreciated, thanks
Click your name (it's on the bar at the very top)
Click "Court Spouse" (or Court/Woo Woman or something, it's the first option)
Then select whom you want to court. The richer and nobler or higher ranking they are, the harder the catch.
After that, the 'court spouse' option will be replaced by 'You are courting X' - click that and send her/him gifts (you have to wait a while between gifts). Also send her poems/parties/do anything you can to raise your friendship level with her, this is particularly important if you're wooing someone way out of your league. Don't worry too much about that step if you're courting someone poor with no title and just want the kids (as you'll just waste money and time)
Edit: One more thing - your kid MUST be 12 years old to be a valid option to continue playing, so I'd seriously consider drinking some Faust elixir or hoping for the death insurance option if your guy is getting on a bit in age...
