Marriage

Wedding ceremony with Abigail

Marriage becomes possible after reaching best friend status (10 hearts) with a villager. Marriage candidates are shown to be "single" in the Social tab, regardless of gender. To initiate a romantic relationship, a special bouquet must be given (sold at Pierre's General Store). The bouquet is only sold after reaching 8 Hearts with a villager.

To become engaged, a Mermaid's Pendant must be presented. The Mermaid's Pendant can be purchased from the Old Mariner on the beach for data-sort-value="5000">5,000g (after repairing the bridge (300 wood) and upgrading the farmhouse at least once). The Old Mariner only appears on rainy days, meaning he will never appear during Winter.

The wedding ceremony will take place 3 days after proposing, immediately after waking up. When the event is over, the player and their newly wedded spouse will appear on the farmhouse porch at 6:00 a.m.

Best gifts to give to the marriage candidates

Married Life

Once a villager has been married, they will move into the farmhouse. They will have a maximum of 12 hearts instead of 10, and keeping them happy will result in them helping around the farm. A happy spouse might make breakfast, feed animals, repair fences or water crops. Interacting with your spouse when no dialogue is available will result in an embrace. Giving gifts to other eligible bachelors/bachelorettes may result in your spouse questioning you about it. Clarification is needed on whether it has a negative impact on your relationship. It is also possible to have children under certain circumstances.
