Hug & Marry
Hug & Marry lets players on a server form marriages, hug one another and manage their relationship through in-game commands and chat.
What it does
Marriage is handled as a relationship between two players. A married pair can view shared information such as the partner, the date the marriage began and the current PvP status, and either partner can end the union. Hugging is a social interaction the mod adds to the game, so players have a way to show affection without any combat or trading involved.
The mod is server-side. It runs on Fabric and can also be installed on Paper, Spigot or Bukkit servers, where it is available as a plugin. A Paper build also registers optional PlaceholderAPI placeholders, and it keeps working normally when PlaceholderAPI is not installed. Client installation is not needed for players to join.
