Do you think that IF Tali and Shep get married will it be a wedding dress of do they have a ceremonial veil

I think a veil would be simpler to do since if it were a dress
it would probably have to replace or go over the suit.

You assume that Quarians have the same marriage rituals as humans. For all we know, they might not have weddings at all, or their weddings are entirely different than ours. Proof ? Salarians have no weddings, they're just signing breeding contracts. Krogan just go to female camps and... breed >.>. No data on Turians or the Asari, but as for Asari, I believe Liara said in ME1 that it is more than socially acceptable in their culture to simply "be" with someone, with no "permanent" vows/promises.

As we know nothing about Quarians, the possibilities for their weddings are endless. If we wan't to speculate, we must open our minds and stop thinking in human terms.

Which is damn difficult at times, since we've never seen anything truly alien.

He does bring up a good point.  We know that family is important to quarians, and we know a bit about Tali's mother and father, and that there is a concept of extended (though non-related) family w/ "Auntie Raan."  The closest we have to knowing about quarian marriage is som small details in ME Ascension that show nuclear families of quarians (parents and single child) all living in 3x3 meter cubicles.

Disposing of Miranda takes special effort.  It's hard to do without at least one other person kicking off.

Whatever they're saving her for in ME3 had better be entertaining.

My main playthrough Miranda & Jack fighting ended up getting Tali killed. My paralell universe memories have foster a great hidden anger with both of them for it. Mostly because I tried reconciling with Miranda and she insists on being a B about it. Boot to the head is in order.

How the freak did that happen?

Can't you just bring unloyal Miri to the end boss?  Seems easy enough...

Like Israeli and palestinians sorting out their differences over who should own Israel/Palestine. It may take a bit more than just a cup of tea to settle. Not that I don't think Paragon Shepard can pull some awesome speech to help, but still...

I don't think that this is an apt analogy, because the Geth do not live on Rannoch for their own benefit.  They make no special claim to it, whereas the Palestinians and Israelis both do.  If Legion is to be believed, the only reason they are there at all is to take care of it and maintain it, perhaps even specifically for the benefit of their creators.  The Geth largely live in space stations and take resources from asteroids, anyway.

Bizarrely, the quarians are living the life geth supposedly find optimal.  Mind=blown.

Presumably he had Tali in the vents and unloyal Miranda leading the B-team.

Interesting.  Thank you.  I was hoping the question would not get lost in the scroll.

Fortunately I am always very careful to do all the loyalty missions.

ME books are, sadly, unavailable in my country.

Still - we all got used to the idea of a veil/dress, because we see it on every wedding.

As far as we can tell, quarian wedding might, and IMO should be totally different than human. Including the costumes, rituals and everything else connected with it.

As much as I love Ghost's drawings, which are damn good, if I saw Shepard and Tali taking a quarian marriage, and seen that more than 50% of it is an analogue of a human wedding, I'd be at the very least not amused.

Tali'Zorah nar Rayya. Which of those names means 'perfection' in Quarian?

and to be on topic, Tali is very attractive.

Well, you're only missing a little by not having access to the books.  They contain some tiny details that a person who likes implications could make something of, but most of the definitive data they provide has been hashed out here already.

I'd imagine any ritual would be simple and cheap.  The guidance of the ancestors would likely be invoked.  Given the focus on pooling resources, it might be more about leaving one clan and joining another than about joining two people together.  Then again, the specificity on nuclear family housing makes me wonder just how important clan is (because clan dorms would be more efficient).

Edit:  I wouldn't mind it looking 50% like a human wedding because... well... 50% of the couple in question is human?  Why not celebrate a little of the tradition Shep is bringing to the bed table?
