The '''Bouquet''' is a special gift that you can give to any or all marriage candidates with whom you have gained an 8-heart [[friendship]]. It is given to indicate an interest in a deeper relationship, which also has the potential to develop into a romance. It A bouquet can be purchased at [[Pierre's General Store]] for {{Price|200}} any time after you have reaching an 8-heart friendship with a friend who qualifies to receive itmarriage candidate.
Since the gift unlocks the potential for Giving a romantic interest bouquet to a marriage candidate results in their status changing to "boyfriend" or "girlfriend" on the receiver, the Friendship "Social" tab of the Open Menu indicates (girlfriend) or (boyfriend) under the name(s) of all candidates you give one to, until you become engaged to marrypause menu. Giving the a bouquet unfreezes the friendship level with each recipient, allowing it to decrease again, as well as increase. You are also expected to deepen your ties with your special friends (even if there is no romantic interest)10 hearts, and you will lose ten friendship points each day that you do not talk to them. However, a bouquet never counts against the limit of two gifts per week. It can be given multiple times to any one candidate, even in one day, and results in an increase of 25 [[Friendship#Friendship mechanicsDecay|friendship pointsdecay]] each time it is given. Thus, you can immediately bring your friendship up to 10 hearts by giving enough bouquets to reach that level. The exact number needed depends on how many points you had at 8 hearts, when the level was frozen, but it may require as many as 20 bouquets to reach 10 hearts.
Giving this gift to multiple candidates Gifting a bouquet does not initially damage your friendship (lower heart levels) with earlier recipients. Once you are engaged or married, however, you will lose count against the limit of two hearts with your intended or spouse if you give it gifts per week. It can be given multiple times to another any one candidate, and increases [[friendship]] by 25 points each time. This can be exploited to quickly bring friendship up to 10 hearts, by giving multiple bouquets at one time.
Since friendship with a marriage candidate freezes at 8 hearts until you give a bouquet, giving at least one to every marriage candidate is the only way to advance your friendship to 10 hearts with all the candidates you do NOT intend to marry. If you intend to raise these friendship levels that far, it is advisable to do so before you become engaged, since doing it later involves penalties. The bouquet can be sold for {{Price|100}} via the [[Shipping|shipping box]]. Pierre will not buy them back.
==Group 10-Heart Event==
==Trivia==
*Bouquets do not count towards the recipient's gift limit.*Gifting a bouquet to your [[marriage]] partner spouse can still trigger dialogs such as "I Accept! I didn't know you felt the same."
*The first version of the group 10-heart event (released during beta testing) was much more harsh. It would cause the player to lose 250 friendship points with each bachelor/bachelorette, and cancel any [[Marriage|engagement]] the player had with a villager. The bachelors/bachelorettes would exclaim they were all "breaking up" with the player, instead of giving the "cold shoulder." The event would also reset all bachelors/bachelorettes to 8 hearts of friendship, and "girlfriend" or "boyfriend" status would be removed. In this harsher version, the rabbit's foot would do nothing.
