Harvest Moon®: Echoes of Teradea Bryce, marriage candidate

Birthday and gifts

These are item-specific preferences, not blanket rules for crops, flowers or fish. Neoseeker reports one gift per person per day; liked gifts give twice the friendship of a neutral gift, favorites three times. On a birthday, a non-disliked gift counts as a favorite. This is guide-sourced data, not our own playtest.

Six heart events: requirements, locations and times

The first event opens after Maplehill Chapter 1, not simply after meeting Bryce. Neoseeker says each new heart level sends a letter and further friendship waits for that event. Read the letter, track its request and follow the musical-note marker.

Events 1 and 3 start by talking to the candidate. The other rows are meeting triggers, not the destination of every scene. For events 5 and 6, first give a Token of Love after event 4.

Source: Neoseeker: Maplehill heart events, read on 18 October 2026. Neoseeker says bad weather cancels most outdoor meetings; events 1-4 wait during festivals in this candidate's town, while events 5-6 wait during festivals anywhere. A row without a time is not proof of 24-hour availability.

Where to find Bryce outside events

Maplehill Town is the sourced home location. The event table gives specific meeting points and windows, not a daily walking timetable. Weekday, weekend, rainy-day and post-story routines were not verified in the sources checked on 18 October 2026.

Background and main-story appearances

Bryce comes from a high social class in Maplehill and is trying to get his family to accept a newer culture.

Maplehill Chapter 1 follows Bryce’s attempt to bring new music to Sommet. He invites you to meet the band after midnight and confronts his brother Desmond over the town’s traditions. These are story scenes, not a romance-event checklist.

Rules that apply to every candidate, including Bryce

• You can marry any candidate regardless of your gender.
• You cannot marry the protagonist you are playing. The other protagonist remains eligible: Robert when you play Carol, or Carol when you play Robert. That leaves 9 eligible partners from the 10-name roster.
• The ceremony itself waits until after the staff roll.
• Neoseeker lists a Token of Love after heart event 4, followed by events 5 and 6. Tiny crafts it at the Harvest Goddess Statue Altar using 10 Red Rose and 10 Diamond; the recipe unlocks the next morning after anyone's fourth event, provided Harvest Goddess Chapter 1 is complete.
• For a proposal, Neoseeker requires heart event 6, a Level 3 house, the Blue Feather from the end of Harvest Goddess Chapter 2, and no prior proposal to someone else. Hold the feather and give it to your lover.
