Officiants will not just stand there any longer, but will actually do their officiant job.

Same issue. I think it's a problem where the game is not properly assigning the role or buff or whatever tells the officiant sim that they are, in fact, the officiant - because when you ask them to be your officiant they do not get the associated sentiment.

Yup

I got the officiant - officiant vows with kiss - to work. The main reason for this issue I noticed is that the officiant should not be allowed for the attend ceremony interactions. At least they're not the one attending, but holding the ceremony.

This can be achieved by changing the test_globals for the tuning

The bolded part is the one where the officiant is included and shoud be erased.

However, there seems to be another unrelated issue with the officiant ceremony without kiss that seems to lie somewhat deeper in the code. I have no insight to share on that one, The tuning for it seems to be fine, but i still doesn't work at all with the changes mentioned above.
