Dating to wedding

How Romance Works

  1. 1

    Complete earlier heart events

    Build friendship and see each candidate's relationship events in order before the eight-heart choice.

  2. 2

    Choose the romantic route

    At the eight-heart event, choose romance to begin dating; the alternate route remains friendship.

  3. 3

    Reach 10 hearts

    Continue talking, gifting, and seeing events until the dating candidate reaches the current cap.

  4. 4

    Learn the ring recipe

    Elsie visits the farm the next morning and gives the Engagement Ring recipe.

  5. 5

    Craft and discuss

    Current community documentation places the required materials at Mines level 90 progress. Hold the ring and choose Discuss with your partner.

  6. 6

    Pick the wedding date

    After the proposal, choose a date at least five days away and prepare the ceremony details.

Multiple dating

See Every Proposal Event Before You Choose

You can date multiple candidates and collect the special item from every 10-heart proposal event before becoming engaged. Engagement is the point that finalizes the relationship route.

By default, other dating relationships convert to Best Friends and may trigger breakup letters. Version 1.0 provides one setting that hides the breakup letters without stopping the breakup, plus a separate setting that prevents the Dating-to-Best-Friends change and disables those breakups entirely. Toggle the second option before confirming the engagement for it to take effect.

After the proposal

Wedding, Marriage & Children

The earliest wedding date is five days after the proposal. Before the ceremony, you can discuss flower colors, cake flavor, and the reception meal with your partner.

The wedding occupies the full day, while townsfolk automatically handle watering, feeding, and petting animals. Your spouse moves into the farmhouse afterward and follows a new schedule. Optional children become available after marriage; the current release supports one child, does not include a child growth stage, and has no divorce system.
