Rune Factory 5 - How to Get Married
Marriage is a late-game event that players can participate in with other characters of their choosing. As the natural step up from simple dating, read on to learn how you can get married along with all the requirements for marriage!

How to Get Married

Marriage Conditions




Must Be Dating

Rune Factory 5 - Must Be Dating
An important requirement that players absolutely must have done already prior to trying to get married is that they must be "Dating" their chosen character. This can easily be done by raising the Friendship Level to 7 and clearing two Romance Events.

Players can then afterwards proclaim their love for their intended partner, thus shifting their relationship into Dating.

All Romance Events (Stories) and How to Unlock

Friendship Level Must Be 10 or Higher

Rune Factory 5 - Increase Friendship Level to 10
Once players are dating their chosen character, they can now also go on Dates. There are two types of dates that players can go on: Normal and Special.

Players will need to go to three of these dates in order to unlock Romance Events that can help to raise Friendship Levels significantly. The first three of these dates that players go on will be considered as "Special".

How to Raise Friendship Level

Don't Be Late to Dates

On the day of the date, do not be late. If you go the agreed upon meeting place outside of a one-hour time limit, their partner will get mad. These can then be rectified later on with a simple conversation with the partner.

Complete Main Game Story and Meet All NPCs

One of the last few tasks that players should have done already is to complete the Main Story. Otherwise, players will be unable to continue on with marrying their intended partner. Afterwards, players will need to meet all the NPCs around Rigbarth.

The last thing that players will need to do is to finally propose to their partner. When players propose and arrive at the designated area the next day, an event will occur and a wedding will be held, which completes the marriage.

To propose, open the rucksack with the + button and hold the engagement ring in your hand and hand it to their partner, thus completing their proposal!

Make sure you have completed all the requirements on the request board for the request 'preparing for marriage' pops up, getting married takes awhile in this game..

My game is bugged, beaten unlocked the tower and vacation home, have over 10 affection gone on 7+ dates with Beatrice selected each date location at least once, selected each option get close hold hands etc, can't get the task on the board to get double bed or engagement ring. Double bed doesn't show on either of Palmo's list. I made an engagement ring out of gold/diamond because I learned the recipe from bread. Ring is refused each time. Try a different day it's refused.
