Apparently,Stardew Valleyplayers are still learning lessons the hard way, and it became clear to one unfortunate fan that you could actually have your wedding day ruined if you don’t understand how things work. It requires a bit of work to fashion and craft your own wedding clothes inStardew, and it turns out that all that work will be for nothing if you don’t end up wearing the clothes the nightbeforeyour wedding.
In a recent post on theStardew Valleysub, Reddit userWeekly_Piccolo474learned the hard way, putting in an in-game week’s worth of effort designing and creating the perfect wedding dress, only to realize that on the day of the wedding that she was wearing her regular clothes.Players are learning that if you don’t wear your wedding clothes the night before your wedding, you’re going to show up at the alter completely under-dressed.This is a strange and frustrating flaw in the system that isn’t properly explained anywhere.
Stardew Valley Player Gets Wedding Ruined Wearing Wrong Clothes
Reddit User Finds Out The Hard Way
Redditor Weekly_Piccolo474 learned a valuable lesson from this incident andwill surely be planning ahead next timethere’s awedding coming up. According to the post, they"spent a whole week trying to find an ornamental fan for the wedding top … All for nothing when I’m teleported at 6am to my wedding [in] my regular clothes!“Imagine the frustration of all that preparation going to waste, especially due to a very strange gameplay mechanic that isn’t explained anywhere in the game.
While the wedding itself goes on as normal, players are likely to be caught off guard when they wake up the next morning without the choice to change clothes before the big ceremony.Some players are clearly investing a lot of time into creating the perfect dress, with this user"spending half my days at Emily’s trying to [dye] stuff.“They also point out that this isn’t explained anywhere in the game, and you’re pretty much left to figure things out for yourself by trial and error.
You Must Sleep In Your Wedding Dress The Night Before Getting Married
Players Are Using Reddit To Figure Out What Happened To Their Wedding Clothes
It might have been an oversight on thepart of ConcernedApe, creator ofStardew, but it turns out thatthere’s no in-game explanation or tooltip that lays out the rules for wedding clothes. Players are resorting to Reddit to figure out what went wrong, and others expressed that they were just now learning the same information that the unfortunate bride did. The top comment fromAlexandra_the_gre4tsums up how common the experience can be, saying “We’ve all been there for our first wedding!'
This is obviously a strange system if it was intentionally set up that way, and assmaltseyputs it in a reply to the original post,“the game should give you a minute before your wedding"to get yourself in order and looking your best.This is the biggest day of yourStardewlife,after all, and not giving players the opportunity to change clothes beforehand seems like an oversight more than a deliberate choice.
Stardew Valley should give you some kind of heads up that you need to put on your wedding clothes the night before.
While ConcernedApe certainly has his hands full with his new upcomingHaunted Chocolatierproject, this might be an issue worth addressing in a future patch for the game. Weddings inStardew Valleycan take some time to prepare for, and the game should give you some kind of heads up that you need to put on your wedding clothes the night before if you want your character to be wearing them at the altar.
