 |  Question = I can't get this focus of marriage item but I'm sure I helped in the preparations. What gives??
 |      Text = Yes it was a reward where you had to have completed a quest that is no longer available to get the rewards.

Yes we will have one time rewards occasionally in the future as well.

In this case the reward was for those who decided to do the quest even though it had no immediate reward so many went and turned in one item then decided to never go back, or asked what the reward was and when they heard it was nothing they didn't bother to help out.

Also the spells on these bracelets are not unique, they are spells that a lot of people already have on their armor/clothes. The only difference in this case is that they are on a slot they don't normally show up on. So the items are not game changing or unbalancing, since a person can go trade for the spell on another piece of equipment.

To go along with the these items are tradeable so someone who really wants one can trade with someone who earned one. Some previous one time rewards were either attuned to the person who earned them, or titles which are stuck on the character.

Essentially this was a thank you reward to those who spent time doing a quest that at the time had no reward. It's an item that isn't over-powering in that it has a level 8 castable spell on it and an epic that can be found on many other pieces of loot already.

 |  Question = What was going on with this quest on HG? Nobody was ever able to turn in any dyes, and the whole thing seemed sort of bugged.
 |      Text = I didn't get a chance to look at it closely before patch day, however I would suspect a hiccup caused the landblock to reset temporarily which could of caused something like that. Unfortunate in that it wouldn't allow tulips to be turned in but fortunate in that trees could have been turned in again.

 |  Question = An epic AND complimentary level 8 spell. In one item. That won't drop.
 |      Text = It is not bonded, but it does have a lower value. Since it is not attuned it can also be traded to someone who really desires one.

 |  Question = Where's the thank you to the people who've ran around for a month checking every nook and cranny of Dereth for menhir rings?
 |      Text = Different quests have different rewards. The wedding is a monumental occasion in AC and as such had a special reward tied in with it.

 |  Question = I thought Attuned meant that. Either way, AC Wiki lists both, but apparently it's wrong. NoWorries said that they can be traded here, so I take it all back.
 |      Text = As these bracelets are sitting on a bench near the wedding they can also be inspected by anyone if there is any confusion, but no they are neither attuned nor bonded

 |  Question = I always go out and explore the new content on patch day, so on the patch when this was introduced, I gathered my stones and trees and turned them in. Upon trying to turn in a second of each, it became apparent that there was nothing else I could do at that point, so I moved on. There was no indication of how many items needed to be turned in to advance it, and limited to 1 item per character, that's a maximum of nine items I could have added, as I don't run multiple accounts. Now, because I wasn't around when others got to the dye and flower stage, I miss out on the rewards? It's cool to make unique rewards, but it's not cool when you are limited to the amount of effort you can put in without relying on the help of others. Anyway, that's just my opinion.
 |      Text = You could turn in one item to each NPC without needing the help of any other players to turn in more, that was 4 items. You needed to turn in at least 3 items to get a bracelet.

 |  Question = When is the wedding event?
 |      Text = We have not announced the date yet. I would expect an '''''invitation'''''  to go out sometime next week with all the details.
