You can tell developers put alot of love into Lydia. Shes generally your 1st companion and they probably figured most casual players would take her everywhere and not bother with the rest. They pushin her to be best girl. Then they made Serana....
On my first every character, I married Lydia. One day a came back to Lakeview Manor and she was gone. No ransom note, no quest to get her back, no nothing. She just up and left me with my kids. From that day forward, I vowed to never marry her on any other character.
I decided to marry Camilla this time around because, not only was her and her brother the first people we meet when the game first start, but are appreciated to the Dragonborn for helping them and ask for nothing in return. But of course, I had to deal with Sven and Faendal. So I talked to Faendal, had him give me the fake letter, spoke to Sven immediately after that, had him give me the fake letter from Faendal and give it to Camilla so she be angry at Faendal. Of course, this was all a setup to have Sven trust me so I take him to the Shrine of Boethiah and sacrifice him to the Daedric Lord. THEN to add salt to Faendal, married Camilla (which admittedly, I like her story and reason to coming to Skyrim) and now live in the manor that oversees Whiterun in the distance. Here comes the best part: I wake up one day and Faendel was in my house right next to Camilla! She gasped when she Faendal was there and he said the line "You talking to me? After what you did?" and I am like "BITCH, YOU ARE IN MY HOUSE!'. Of course he left my home but not after quietly following him, killing him and dumping his body in a dead area full of mammoth remains. Best part? Not even seconds later I had a courier come up to me, handing me a letter from Camilla which is a thank you to me for eliminating her "rival". So not only do I have a brother in law who owns a business, to which I invested in and sell my goods from time and time again, but a wife who thanked me for killing her "rival" all while I was the one who made her think that Faendal was the jerk AND sacrificing Sven to a Daedric Lord, thus getting rid of the competition for Camilla's heart! Talk about the disrespect!
@@blackheartthedarklord6428 I always chose Heljarchen from a logic perspective. It's close to whiterun which is considered the hub of skyrim's trade and commerce. A giant camp to the east that would ward of would be thieves and bandits from the east. To its west you have snowy hills and mountains, with no real threats in that direction for a vast distance, barring dragon sites that is. Finally there's the nearby farm, which would provide opportunities for trade, but in case of emergency, theres folks within walking distance. (Also if you belive the owner of that farm to be Lucia's uncle based on what fans suggest, you can adopt Lucia, just to spite her uncle by giving her a massive home thats just awalk away from the farm lol.)
Wish I could marry Ingun Black-Briar. After getting her 60 flowers and hearing her interest in alchemy I wondered if I could infiltrate the family and take it over with her replacing Maven, but devs said NO

Too bad you can't change her clothes. She's always in her ragged mining clothes which is pretty bad considering she is the wife of the dragonborn, who's considered nobility in all holds of skyrim and lives in proudspire manor in solitude.

You know, I usually don't get married. Recently tried it. Married Mjoll. Knew that aerin came along with that, but I've got a big house. What's it matter? The bad day started when I was standing at our bed and had skipped a day. Only to see this man hopping out if it. Everyone in Windhelm caught a case that day.
Lads , lets talk about Lydia : -Nord ( already perfect) -sword and shield ready to take on Alduin if it means protecting you -built like a TANK -doesn't need magic to kick butt -ready to hold to as many dragon bones and scales you can find -no daddy issues , anger issues or sadistic tendancies -hasn't sold her soul to any daedra , heart and spirid as pure as Shor made them -posessive but in a lovely way (she won't let you go through the door without saying Hi first) Now , if this ain't enough proof to you that she can be the Dovahwife than idk what will.
first and only time I used her for a follower she got 1 shot by a frost troll it was my first time playing and I didn't realize the Labarinthya was crawling with them as I've found that most followers are pretty much useless obstacles that are more hinderance than help unless you can give them god tier gear I don't use them unless I'm forced to
Something doesn't add up because we met at least three members of House Telvanni although the dark elf in Rifton has a quest where you find a book that states he's the last of his family 😅
IMPORTANT: There's a key inaccuracy in this video. Before the Amulet of Mara will work on anyone, you MUST go to Riften and speak to Maramel. If he's not in the temple he might be preaching in the tavern. You need to ask him about the temple and then ask 'So I could get married here?' or something like then, and then ask him to explain marriage in Skyrim. He'll explain about wearing the amulet etc. Only then will wearing an Amulet of Mara trigger additional conversation options from potential marriage partners.
I like using the “Marry anyone” mod, so I can first drop the hammer on Mikael, then go Wed Carolotta. Or I request the hand of Edri, from the Blue Palace, because she’s just so dang cute and innocent. Especially with her line of… “Are you my gallant hero? Have you come to whisk me away, to a life of adventure and romance?”
I use that mod too but I may uninstall it. Everytime I marry someone, within 2 minutes I'm wishing I woulda picked someone else. Need to just drop the mod and go with the vanilla options. Plus my favorite, Ingrod the younger, is glitchy and never goes to our home, she just spawns back in morthal. Ended up with saadia, now wishing I'd gone with olfina grey mane.
Aela. Lovely werewolf lady. Sad that she can't transform. Hunting together and sharing their enemies hearts... I really hope future titles include transformations for companions, I mean shouldn't be that hard.
I loved her until I asked how the kids were and she whined about wolves being a problem and said "how could you move us to this place" well excuse me princess
i think shahvee was my first ever wife and i did it very specifically to see if i can make her live inside the walls of windhelm, it was rather underwelming but i will always remember that pack-a-day smoker's "My Love"
The only thing Aela dose that's bad. Everytime you come home or get near her she will say "somthing shifting in winds BROTHER" I'm from the south but I'm not that kind of southerner
A video like this in 2024 is crazy. Every other skyrim info type video i see is damn near 10 years old lol. Still, much appreciated as i get to look at other options for my multiple characters. Honestly, Lydia will always be my best girl. My first follower, first woman i married, Ysolda was the second lol. I like Alea, Mijoll and Frea but never married them. I WISH you could marry Serana but you can't without mods. I love Serana but i just can't put her above Lydia. It doesn't feel right for me personally. She's 2nd best though for sure.
i've always personally been upset that you can't marry Wujeeta in Riften in the vanilla game she's, imo, one of the cutest argonian women in the vanilla game and i get mad protective of her when she mentions how scared she is of losing her job at the fishery because she got addicted to skooma, even moreso with a few of her radiant conversations with a couple of the other citizens from my perspective, i just want to help her get clean and let her live a cozy, comfortable life thanks to my character's insane and endless wealth, and i get a cute lizard waifu in return but for whatever reason, she's non-marriageable in the vanilla game, so after you complete her unmarked quest and use her to start The Raid quest, she becomes completely irrelevant i don't even think she's canonically already married, you just don't get the option i guess the logic, aside from BGS just saying "people probably won't pay too much attention to her", behind this is "why would she want to marry you just because you gave her one healing potion?" but at the same time... Temba will jump your bones for killing a few bears and even then, Wujeeta still starts The Raid quest, which the end goal is to put an end to the Rift's skooma trade, which she says she's afraid they'll come after her if she rats them out so, you could tie her marriage flag to finishing that quest and you could have an extra dialogue option with her after completing it, saying "Hey, I took care of those Skooma people. You won't be seeing them again." that would be a pretty impactful thing and much more reasonable for her to want to marry you for. not only did you help with her addiction, but you went after the people who got her addicted and took care of them, so she's now completely safe from the people she ratted out, and those same people won't be poisoning anyone ever again TL;DR I really like Wujeeta and I always get a mod that lets me marry her whenever I play Skyrim :v
Yeah, that bothers me too. I like Wujeeta a lot. I was so disappointed when I equipped the amulet of Mara only to not get the option to marry her. As you said she's kind hearted and also good looking.
my go to is usually Aela, Brelyna or Borgakh. Since I play as a reckless barbarian, a partner that can also help me on my dungeon delving adventures is what I love. c:
Ysolda also gives you 100 gold per day as a cut from her trading. The highest I got was 31 days=3,100 gold when I was off adventuring. in my humble opinion she's the best wife for sharing and caring.
It doesn't matter who's side you pick in the war, once you have Hjerim, you can move her in to stick it to Rolff Stone-Fist, or any Argonian and Dunmer spouse for that moment.
Brelynne is from house Telvanni .... dunmer "nobility", Viola doesnt reside in the tavern .. she has her own house across the walkway from clan shatter-shield
NGL kinda wish Bethesda would've added haelga's niece as a marriage candidate (in the be and barb in riften, she's just so hung up on sibbi tho) Or even ingrod the younger (if she wasn't to become jarl when her mother passes)
My top female spouses are: Shahvee because she works for my Argonian axe and shield warrior and they are my favourite race. Mjoll the Lioness as she is good when making a power couples with my old Nord Werewolf. Sylgja is a genuinely nice person and my Breton Stormcloak ice Spell-sword works well. Ria is a sweet woman I'm planning on having her marry my Imperial thief and move her to Riften. Ghorza is a fine Orc wife fror my Orc Imperial Legate. Brelyne is going to be cute with my Morag Tong Dunmer. There are more but those are my favourites.
I go to Wife now is Muiri. Just because once married the Spouses dialogue becomes extremely limited so I settled on "Thank you again for resolving my... problem" I mean She says that every morning when we get out of bed so... Amusingly sexy :)
@@CosmicGoku529 Use your imagination man! In my very first playthrough, I enlisted Lydia into the Blades. When I did it, Hrongar, the jarl Balgruuf's brother sent assassins to me with a letter to get rid of my character. The three muscular guys said they are hear to teach me a lesson. I killed them in a fight, but you know what? I understood that Lydia is a Hrongar's daughter, Balgruuf's niece. She served in Whiterun's guard to become best warrior and Balgruuf himself appointed her as Dragonborn's housecarl to marry her in the future. Having Dragonborn as a brother-in-law or something is extremely good in feudal medieval society, so the jarl made an important decision. Instead of marrying Dragonborn, she got enlisted into blades in the middle of nowhere under the command of some overacting paranoid officer (Delfine) and some crazy old man (Esbern). Not the best outcome, really. Use your imagination man!
Console players: there is 60 marriage options, PC player: I SUMMON... THE POWER OF CONSOLE COMMANDS, AND MODS, now I could even marry a barrel if it has dialogues
You summed up many pc players perfectly. The ability to marry a barrel. Who in their right mind would want that? Or a gun, or insane spells that ruin the game. You are not even playing Skyrim any more, but some fantasy fairy tale game full of naked women and invincible characters that just destroy everything. It's all in your pathetic heads. It's not Skyrim. Marry a barrel FFS. Madness.
Borgakh the Steel Heart is my favorit companion and potential wife. She is strong, loyal and honorable. Also as a wife she got some of the cutest lines.
taarie and temba are my personal favorites, I love there attitudes and how even though they both have the same domestic dialogue there voice actresses really do well to make each feel distinctive; taarie is very sassy with how she says her lines, you leave the house to kick ass and she KNOWS it! Temba however speaks like she’s not even bothering to look up from her newspaper which is very funny and weirdly endearing to me.
You can marry Muiri without joining the DB. You have to kill Boethela so that Muiri takes over the shop, then invest in the shop. That'll raise her disposition towards you, and make her marryable.
I have watched a few of these Skyrim marriage videos, and no one mentions Grelka, the short tempered armour merchant from Riften. I married her on one of my playthroughs.
When it comes to being forced into a choice of un-modded vanilla women - well, I'm shallow, so it would have to be Lydia. She is by default, the most attractive vanilla woman in the game.
There was 1 that wasn't mentioned cause I don't remember if she's marriageable or not. She has her own quest line where you have to help kill her crazy mother that's allied with some hagravens. And we get a neat staff out of the deal. Pretty sure she's either a Breton or Nord, probably Breton cause she is a mage follower. Idk about anyone else, but I consider followers to be husbands/wives anyway cause I think a lot of us have that 1 we travel everywhere with and do our best to keep them from dying. Usually through a mod that prevents them from dying on us. As far as where this mage follower is? She's around the Rift iirc and it's kinda off the beaten path from what I remember
Illia from darklight tower, I'm unsure if she can be wed as I was already married to Camilla by time I came across her quest.. she does become an option of follower after completing her quest (I already had serana well equipped, but it was at the part where you can have serana and 1 other, but the 2 kept fighting each other and my unicorn so I told her we had to part ways), then she was getting beat down in the hot springs part by the necromancer a week later. However, I believe she is one that can only be killed by the player so she just continuously kept going to the "exhausted state" on her hands and knees.. I'll try to wait till that quest in my current play through to see if she is able to be wed..
@eddmario I can't find him, I've been waiting in the temple for like 10 days Found him, he likes to hang out in the tavern if anyone is looking for him
Me, personally, I think the non-follower options for marriage are the best ones. As followers are used for helping in combat and are best if ‘disposable’ assets, since one can just easily be replaced with another/ new one. And if your spouse is a follower and they die- you stop getting that EASY MONEY income as you can’t just remarry.. So… Followers are imo the worst possible choices… Plus they are easy choices, once followers, they are easily married… On top of that most are easily accessed. Other characters always make you work for the marriage option with a quest! Nice to be able to have the choice of the easy road/ route but when that’s a choice- way more fun to do it the hard(er) way 😂 Sometimes/ once in a while, anyhow.
Simple solution: just marry an immortal NPC folllower like Mjoll and problem solved. 😂 Besides, what's more romantic than destroying bandit camps and dungeons full of enemies side by side with your spouse 😂😂
Wrong, A shotgun wedding is a wedding arranged in response to getting pregnant and is definitely a fast wedding to stave off being disowned by family that believes in nonsense.
@@bigbotzone yes, she also can't be a steward ether, she could join the blades but her gameplay is not optimal for them so I wouldn't recommend it, she's still a very good follower though.
Does she still call you thane like Lydia does? Cuz thats my main big turnoff for marrying housecarls.. Like come on Lydia I married you cuz you're awesome and beautiful, good sense of humor and sarcasm and cuz she feels more like a best friend to the DB than a follower/servant. You can drop the thane act as a spoude.. But unfortunately she kept calling me thane ik that dialogue coding.. So does Jordis do that aswel? And if so I wonder if theres a mod for ps4 that fixes that..
@zare5334, Unfortunately, she does. But she hardly ever says it. She mostly calls you her "Thane" when she's a follower, but usually, when I come home from a quest, she says the same greeting as Ysolda: "Hello, my love. Back from some adventure, I bet."
My main thing here is I don't get what the designers were drinking when they designed most of the female mer. Also why for dunmer they favor the ashen over purplish skin tone.
Skyrim is still my favorite game with the restoration potion glitch. I married Lydia in 1 game play but didn't like being called thane so don't bother with marriage. Might try marriage again with Ysold. Good video
I think my first Skyrim wife ever was Uthgerd. A good heart, strong sword arm, and she can accompany me in my adventures. I dont know why but Jordis has always been my favorite of the Housecarls. Shes the one I've married in probably more than half of my playthroughs. No solid reason why. Guess I just like blondes? Would've liked to marry Ingun Black-Briar, Saadia, or Vex from the Thieves Guild(without mods)
Fun Fact: You can get Aerin to stop following Mjoll around if you kill him as he’s not essential. Just make sure to do it when Mjoll is out of his sight or she’ll never speak to you again.
When I play as a male character I either choose Lydia, the original, and the most loyal housecarl, or Sylgja, the most beautiful woman in all of Skyrim. When I play as a female character I only choose Benor, the strongest warrior of Morthal. I don't like anybody else, and the guy desperately needs love and new home, since he hasn't any. Seriously, you've seen his muscles, all right?
Shavee is the best wife. Then again, I always play as Argonian. She's a savvy business woman and doesn't let the overt racism of the Nords get her down. She's the perfect mother to my two adopted Nord daughters.
Aela is usually my go to for female spouses, due to there not being any options to marry Bosmer maidens, she is the next best waifu in the vanilla game. IMHO. Shame she isn't essentially like Serana, though
I like marrying Injun Black Briar with a mod that permits it. Brother in law is Sibbi. Mother in law of course is Maven. Two of Riften's finest "a wholes." 😂
please help me i want to marry shahvee but i cant do her quest i did a WAR for her (if someone is curious i killed ulfric) i talk with the argonians i did most things but still i cant, how can i do it?
I believe only the ones that aren't available as followers, also if you want more alchemical ingredients/ potions I believe they have to be an alchemist/former alchemist I.E. muiri/or the lady dunmer that has you get 20 jazbay grapes for her. I could be wrong on this though (haven't done the in-depth research)
I actually like Jenassa, though that girl in the Bannered Mare and the one in Riften - Njada, I think? Yeah, they're interesting as well. Still wish you could marry Serana, though...
I’m not sure if it’s true but apparently the developers of Skyrim couldn’t be bothered to code in a male marry female/female marry male rule so they just made every character bi

-sword and shield ready to take on Alduin if it means protecting you
-built like a TANK
-doesn't need magic to kick butt
-ready to hold to as many dragon bones and scales you can find
-no daddy issues , anger issues or sadistic tendancies
-hasn't sold her soul to any daedra , heart and spirid as pure as Shor made them
-posessive but in a lovely way (she won't let you go through the door without saying Hi first)

There's a key inaccuracy in this video. Before the Amulet of Mara will work on anyone, you MUST go to Riften and speak to Maramel. If he's not in the temple he might be preaching in the tavern.
You need to ask him about the temple and then ask 'So I could get married here?' or something like then, and then ask him to explain marriage in Skyrim. He'll explain about wearing the amulet etc.
Only then will wearing an Amulet of Mara trigger additional conversation options from potential marriage partners.
I like using the “Marry anyone” mod, so I can first drop the hammer on Mikael, then go Wed Carolotta.
Or
I request the hand of Edri, from the Blue Palace, because she’s just so dang cute and innocent. Especially with her line of…
“Are you my gallant hero? Have you come to whisk me away, to a life of adventure and romance?”
I use that mod too but I may uninstall it. Everytime I marry someone, within 2 minutes I'm wishing I woulda picked someone else. Need to just drop the mod and go with the vanilla options. Plus my favorite, Ingrod the younger, is glitchy and never goes to our home, she just spawns back in morthal. Ended up with saadia, now wishing I'd gone with olfina grey mane.
Aela. Lovely werewolf lady. Sad that she can't transform. Hunting together and sharing their enemies hearts... I really hope future titles include transformations for companions, I mean shouldn't be that hard.
I heard she loves doggystyle😂😂
There's a mod that allows followers to transform into werewolves. I have it for xbox one
@JKVideo13 thanks, didn't know
I loved her until I asked how the kids were and she whined about wolves being a problem and said "how could you move us to this place" well excuse me princess
I only married her in 1 playthrough. Once married, shes miserable to interact with.
you forgot one priestess
Aranea
she is a priestess of Azura, if we complete the task of purifying Azura's Star, she can become our companion and wife
Jenssa everytime, love the accent and the fact that she is a dunmer.
i think shahvee was my first ever wife and i did it very specifically to see if i can make her live inside the walls of windhelm, it was rather underwelming but i will always remember that pack-a-day smoker's "My Love"
Same, I kinda wish there was a marriageable Khajit, so I chose the Argonians instead and married Shahvee
@@king_fisherXX I wish we could marry J'zargo
The only thing Aela dose that's bad. Everytime you come home or get near her she will say "somthing shifting in winds BROTHER" I'm from the south but I'm not that kind of southerner
That only if you cure your werewolf from. Even says that on the unofficial pages
I just pretend she's a Hulkamaniac when she says that. BTW, Gavin, Aela can't be cured. She refuses to.
A video like this in 2024 is crazy. Every other skyrim info type video i see is damn near 10 years old lol.
Still, much appreciated as i get to look at other options for my multiple characters.
Honestly, Lydia will always be my best girl. My first follower, first woman i married, Ysolda was the second lol. I like Alea, Mijoll and Frea but never married them. I WISH you could marry Serana but you can't without mods. I love Serana but i just can't put her above Lydia. It doesn't feel right for me personally. She's 2nd best though for sure.
Good man. Same here. Lydia is No.1.
Mjoll's such a peak wife they had to nerf her by stapling Aerin to her
Her accent is terrible tho
@ nah, the way those nords roll the R is great
@@chillydawgg4354 Hey! Have you thought about joining the Stormcloacks? You look like a true son of Skyrim.
i've always personally been upset that you can't marry Wujeeta in Riften in the vanilla game
she's, imo, one of the cutest argonian women in the vanilla game and i get mad protective of her when she mentions how scared she is of losing her job at the fishery because she got addicted to skooma, even moreso with a few of her radiant conversations with a couple of the other citizens
from my perspective, i just want to help her get clean and let her live a cozy, comfortable life thanks to my character's insane and endless wealth, and i get a cute lizard waifu in return
but for whatever reason, she's non-marriageable in the vanilla game, so after you complete her unmarked quest and use her to start The Raid quest, she becomes completely irrelevant
i don't even think she's canonically already married, you just don't get the option
i guess the logic, aside from BGS just saying "people probably won't pay too much attention to her", behind this is "why would she want to marry you just because you gave her one healing potion?"
but at the same time... Temba will jump your bones for killing a few bears
and even then, Wujeeta still starts The Raid quest, which the end goal is to put an end to the Rift's skooma trade, which she says she's afraid they'll come after her if she rats them out
so, you could tie her marriage flag to finishing that quest and you could have an extra dialogue option with her after completing it, saying "Hey, I took care of those Skooma people. You won't be seeing them again."
that would be a pretty impactful thing and much more reasonable for her to want to marry you for. not only did you help with her addiction, but you went after the people who got her addicted and took care of them, so she's now completely safe from the people she ratted out, and those same people won't be poisoning anyone ever again
TL;DR I really like Wujeeta and I always get a mod that lets me marry her whenever I play Skyrim :v
Yeah, that bothers me too. I like Wujeeta a lot. I was so disappointed when I equipped the amulet of Mara only to not get the option to marry her. As you said she's kind hearted and also good looking.
Sylgja. Good looking, kind, hard worker and family woman.
my go to is usually Aela, Brelyna or Borgakh. Since I play as a reckless barbarian, a partner that can also help me on my dungeon delving adventures is what I love. c:
Ysolda also gives you 100 gold per day as a cut from her trading. The highest I got was 31 days=3,100 gold when I was off adventuring. in my humble opinion she's the best wife for sharing and caring.
"She used to be a former thief"
🤔🧐 I seeeee...
So that means shes a thief again?
@@rinoz47 it certainly seems that way! 😅
@@rinoz47 she certainly stole my heart
It doesn't matter who's side you pick in the war, once you have Hjerim, you can move her in to stick it to Rolff Stone-Fist, or any Argonian and Dunmer spouse for that moment.
I gave Ysolda my mammoth tusk quite a few times, ayo.
athf Carl: "TONIGHT!"
I like Jordis.
Nobody ever talks about her but she's a good supportive wife
Brelynne is from house Telvanni .... dunmer "nobility", Viola doesnt reside in the tavern .. she has her own house across the walkway from clan shatter-shield
And a nice place also
NGL kinda wish Bethesda would've added haelga's niece as a marriage candidate (in the be and barb in riften, she's just so hung up on sibbi tho)
Or even ingrod the younger (if she wasn't to become jarl when her mother passes)
My top female spouses are:
Shahvee because she works for my Argonian axe and shield warrior and they are my favourite race.
Mjoll the Lioness as she is good when making a power couples with my old Nord Werewolf.
Sylgja is a genuinely nice person and my Breton Stormcloak ice Spell-sword works well.
Ria is a sweet woman I'm planning on having her marry my Imperial thief and move her to Riften.
Ghorza is a fine Orc wife fror my Orc Imperial Legate.
Brelyne is going to be cute with my Morag Tong Dunmer.
There are more but those are my favourites.
I go to Wife now is Muiri. Just because once married the Spouses dialogue becomes extremely limited so I settled on "Thank you again for resolving my... problem" I mean She says that every morning when we get out of bed so... Amusingly sexy :)
Lydia my beloved
Isn’t that the truth. 😂
So you choose the blandest one with no story whatsoever.
Same. My first love.
@@KDB349 Not everyone has good taste
@@CosmicGoku529 Use your imagination man!
In my very first playthrough, I enlisted Lydia into the Blades. When I did it, Hrongar, the jarl Balgruuf's brother sent assassins to me with a letter to get rid of my character. The three muscular guys said they are hear to teach me a lesson. I killed them in a fight, but you know what? I understood that Lydia is a Hrongar's daughter, Balgruuf's niece. She served in Whiterun's guard to become best warrior and Balgruuf himself appointed her as Dragonborn's housecarl to marry her in the future. Having Dragonborn as a brother-in-law or something is extremely good in feudal medieval society, so the jarl made an important decision. Instead of marrying Dragonborn, she got enlisted into blades in the middle of nowhere under the command of some overacting paranoid officer (Delfine) and some crazy old man (Esbern). Not the best outcome, really.
Use your imagination man!
Console players: there is 60 marriage options,
PC player: I SUMMON... THE POWER OF CONSOLE COMMANDS, AND MODS, now I could even marry a barrel if it has dialogues
You summed up many pc players perfectly. The ability to marry a barrel. Who in their right mind would want that? Or a gun, or insane spells that ruin the game. You are not even playing Skyrim any more, but some fantasy fairy tale game full of naked women and invincible characters that just destroy everything. It's all in your pathetic heads. It's not Skyrim. Marry a barrel FFS. Madness.
😂us console peasants get mods too. One of the most popular ones on ps4 is marry almost anyone.
Brelyna Maryon Best option.
she probably has seen the horse transformation and has some weird things in store for the dragonborn and his bedroom.
I'm married to Brelyna in my current playthrough!
My first wife in Skyrim was ysolda
Mine 2
Us
Borgakh the Steel Heart is my favorit companion and potential wife. She is strong, loyal and honorable.
Also as a wife she got some of the cutest lines.
taarie and temba are my personal favorites, I love there attitudes and how even though they both have the same domestic dialogue there voice actresses really do well to make each feel distinctive; taarie is very sassy with how she says her lines, you leave the house to kick ass and she KNOWS it! Temba however speaks like she’s not even bothering to look up from her newspaper which is very funny and weirdly endearing to me.
Aela to me is like stealth archer.
I cannot escape them each playthrough...
Hey Aela, I think this forsworn armor would protect you better
You can marry Muiri without joining the DB. You have to kill Boethela so that Muiri takes over the shop, then invest in the shop. That'll raise her disposition towards you, and make her marryable.
Ysolda, she's a damn good Merchant
I still can't believe they didn't give us any marriable Khajiit. Give me my waifu catgirl, dammit! 🤬😂
All khajiit women belong to Todd
LOL...right!
Muiri is a strong candidate, but Borgakh can Steal my Heart any day.
she has steel heart, yes 😂
Fun video! I use the Marry Almost Anyone mod and it's super fun.
I personally love Lydia cuz she’s always by my side and keeps me company plus she’s very beautiful
I have watched a few of these Skyrim marriage videos, and no one mentions Grelka, the short tempered armour merchant from Riften. I married her on one of my playthroughs.
When it comes to being forced into a choice of un-modded vanilla women - well, I'm shallow, so it would have to be Lydia. She is by default, the most attractive vanilla woman in the game.
I like Lydia. She is a nord, but isnt dumb for brains and isnt afraid to defend either. Ysolda is cool too.
There was 1 that wasn't mentioned cause I don't remember if she's marriageable or not. She has her own quest line where you have to help kill her crazy mother that's allied with some hagravens. And we get a neat staff out of the deal. Pretty sure she's either a Breton or Nord, probably Breton cause she is a mage follower. Idk about anyone else, but I consider followers to be husbands/wives anyway cause I think a lot of us have that 1 we travel everywhere with and do our best to keep them from dying. Usually through a mod that prevents them from dying on us. As far as where this mage follower is? She's around the Rift iirc and it's kinda off the beaten path from what I remember
Illia from darklight tower, I'm unsure if she can be wed as I was already married to Camilla by time I came across her quest.. she does become an option of follower after completing her quest (I already had serana well equipped, but it was at the part where you can have serana and 1 other, but the 2 kept fighting each other and my unicorn so I told her we had to part ways), then she was getting beat down in the hot springs part by the necromancer a week later. However, I believe she is one that can only be killed by the player so she just continuously kept going to the "exhausted state" on her hands and knees.. I'll try to wait till that quest in my current play through to see if she is able to be wed..
I always take Illia to Sky Haven Temple and conduct her as a Blades.
You can't marry illia, best you can do is have her as a steward
Only Amulets of Mara sold/rewarded by the priests in Riften work for marriage. I had a hell of a time using a looted Amulet of Mara.
Really? I've never even heard of that issue before. Wouldn't surprise me though
You need to talk to him first. Once he tells you about marriage than any amulet will work.
False news
@eddmario I can't find him, I've been waiting in the temple for like 10 days
Found him, he likes to hang out in the tavern if anyone is looking for him
You need to be told that that's how marriage works by thingy in Riften
My first wife was A a miner in the far east...I remember i had to take something to another town to marry her...But her mining clothes made me sad.
Me, personally, I think the non-follower options for marriage are the best ones. As followers are used for helping in combat and are best if ‘disposable’ assets, since one can just easily be replaced with another/ new one. And if your spouse is a follower and they die- you stop getting that EASY MONEY income as you can’t just remarry.. So… Followers are imo the worst possible choices…
Plus they are easy choices, once followers, they are easily married… On top of that most are easily accessed.
Other characters always make you work for the marriage option with a quest!
Nice to be able to have the choice of the easy road/ route but when that’s a choice- way more fun to do it the hard(er) way 😂
Sometimes/ once in a while, anyhow.
Simple solution: just marry an immortal NPC folllower like Mjoll and problem solved. 😂
Besides, what's more romantic than destroying bandit camps and dungeons full of enemies side by side with your spouse 😂😂
7:21 Isn't it that in order to marry Miuri you don't just have to complete the quest but have to complete the optional additional murder in the quest?
A shotgun wedding is a wedding under duress, or threat of death. Not a hasty wedding.
Wrong, A shotgun wedding is a wedding arranged in response to getting pregnant and is definitely a fast wedding to stave off being disowned by family that believes in nonsense.
Isn't the Azura Star priestess available for marriage as well if you fix the star? Did I miss the mention?
No, she's not a candidate for marriage.
@james739123 Is she just a follower then?
@@bigbotzone yes, she also can't be a steward ether, she could join the blades but her gameplay is not optimal for them so I wouldn't recommend it, she's still a very good follower though.
Jordis the Sword-Maiden will *always* be my girl.
Does she still call you thane like Lydia does? Cuz thats my main big turnoff for marrying housecarls.. Like come on Lydia I married you cuz you're awesome and beautiful, good sense of humor and sarcasm and cuz she feels more like a best friend to the DB than a follower/servant. You can drop the thane act as a spoude.. But unfortunately she kept calling me thane ik that dialogue coding.. So does Jordis do that aswel? And if so I wonder if theres a mod for ps4 that fixes that..
@zare5334, Unfortunately, she does. But she hardly ever says it. She mostly calls you her "Thane" when she's a follower, but usually, when I come home from a quest, she says the same greeting as Ysolda: "Hello, my love. Back from some adventure, I bet."
Frea would be good too but they pulled a Serana and made an actually developed character a permanent bachlorette
My main thing here is I don't get what the designers were drinking when they designed most of the female mer. Also why for dunmer they favor the ashen over purplish skin tone.
The ones i wanted.
Astrid(first playtrough before i knew)
Vex
Skyrim is still my favorite game with the restoration potion glitch. I married Lydia in 1 game play but didn't like being called thane so don't bother with marriage. Might try marriage again with Ysold. Good video
I think my first Skyrim wife ever was Uthgerd. A good heart, strong sword arm, and she can accompany me in my adventures.
I dont know why but Jordis has always been my favorite of the Housecarls. Shes the one I've married in probably more than half of my playthroughs. No solid reason why. Guess I just like blondes?
Would've liked to marry Ingun Black-Briar, Saadia, or Vex from the Thieves Guild(without mods)
Do you think the unbroken part of her name refers to her 🍒
ok i like her voice❤
Sylgja is my main gal.
9:29 - Her name (both given and sur), is based on the best episode (IMO) of Star Trek: The Next Generation.
Fun Fact: You can get Aerin to stop following Mjoll around if you kill him as he’s not essential. Just make sure to do it when Mjoll is out of his sight or she’ll never speak to you again.
can we get a modded version for ALL the relationship dialog followers addons
or just a top 5 plssssssss
We will look into it! Thanks for watching.
When I play as a male character I either choose Lydia, the original, and the most loyal housecarl, or Sylgja, the most beautiful woman in all of Skyrim. When I play as a female character I only choose Benor, the strongest warrior of Morthal. I don't like anybody else, and the guy desperately needs love and new home, since he hasn't any.
Seriously, you've seen his muscles, all right?
I got so many appearance mods, in addition to stuff like flower girls and amorous adventures plus
I know Lydia is annoying but that is her charm, I always marry her
Shavee is the best wife. Then again, I always play as Argonian. She's a savvy business woman and doesn't let the overt racism of the Nords get her down. She's the perfect mother to my two adopted Nord daughters.
For Taarie, im pretty sure you have to invest in the business before she will marry you
Aela is usually my go to for female spouses, due to there not being any options to marry Bosmer maidens, she is the next best waifu in the vanilla game. IMHO. Shame she isn't essentially like Serana, though
I like marrying Injun Black Briar with a mod that permits it. Brother in law is Sibbi. Mother in law of course is Maven. Two of Riften's finest "a wholes." 😂
If you marry ysolde What happens with her sleeping tree sap business?Do you get them for free And can you sell them to her still or how does that work
please help me i want to marry shahvee but i cant do her quest i did a WAR for her (if someone is curious i killed ulfric) i talk with the argonians i did most things but still i cant, how can i do it?
"the lusty argonian" 😂
For me there are 3 choices Aela, Ysolde and Sylgia. For me any of those choices are always good for marriage 🤗
Do they all open a store cuz i always marry ysolda bcuz of that?
Yes every marriageable candidate turns into a shopkeep once married
I believe only the ones that aren't available as followers, also if you want more alchemical ingredients/ potions I believe they have to be an alchemist/former alchemist I.E. muiri/or the lady dunmer that has you get 20 jazbay grapes for her. I could be wrong on this though (haven't done the in-depth research)
Wifes in my playtroughs.
Aela
Yanessa
Muiri
Aela
Mjoll
The skaal woman who want you to deliver amulet to falkreach
Aela
The best for me is the daughter of beerhouse owner in Markarth though you need to console cheat her to be a marriage candidate
8:40 NGL, this tripped me out when she said this. Lol careful how you word things.
you didn't mention (ANNEKKE Crag-jumper) - she is tibical lidiaa and can use wappon others dont / and don't die
She's already married, but you can marry her daughter.
Which one is annekke crag-jumper?
Shahvee my beloved
Cam you mary Illia the witch from Darklight tower ?
I believe you can
Me: Oooh I'm planning on marrying Aela. I wonder if she's on the list.
Constellations Gaming: (1) Aela the Huntress
Me: Well-
Chad PC Skyrim Player: **just downloads the mod that lets you marry Serana**
My first play through I remember marrying my ride or die Uthgerd the unbroken. After I had to fist fight her in a tavern ofcourse!
ORC WIFE YOU SAY?!?!!?! I've seen enough anime to know where that is going!
Snu snu lol
I actually like Jenassa, though that girl in the Bannered Mare and the one in Riften - Njada, I think? Yeah, they're interesting as well. Still wish you could marry Serana, though...
Could you marry every one of them or at least have all of them, just a thought
Serana, only Serana 😌
My first wife in Skyrim was The queen hunter herself XD
My first was Mjoll the Lioness
Syia is a minor found in shore stone, WAIT WHAT.
Miner*
i used to marry Shahvee, but then I installed a mod that lets you marry Deeja and I haven't chosen anybody else sense.
Why couldn't we get Serana😢
You can. Check out mods that allow this at Nexus mods.
Mjoll is probably my favourite option for vanilla skyrim otherwise serana (as far as Ik you need mods for her)
Lydia 🤩 -Enough said!!
Just for the record, the “J’s” in all the Nord names are pronounced like “Y’s”. Example, “Jordis” is pronounced “Yor-dis”
I want to marry vex 🎉❤
Not bad...ill remember this. Gave you a 👍...
I’m not sure if it’s true but apparently the developers of Skyrim couldn’t be bothered to code in a male marry female/female marry male rule so they just made every character bi
