Marriage Candidates

There are 12 marriage candidates (6 bachelors, 6 bachelorettes). Once you reach 8 hearts with a candidate, you can give them a Bouquet (purchased from Pierre's) to become their boyfriend/girlfriend. At 10 hearts, you can propose with a Mermaid's Pendant (purchased from the Old Mariner on the Beach after repairing the bridge and on rainy days). Marriage brings your spouse to live on your farm, and they will help with chores, give gifts, and offer unique dialogue. You can also have children.
