'Animal Crossing: New Horizons' Wedding Event 2022 Complete Guide: Heart Crystals and More

Publish date: 2024-06-04

Love is in the air in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Wedding Season 2022 has begun, so players can head over to Harv’s Island all month long to earn special wedding-themed rewards. Here’s a complete guide to the Animal Crossing wedding event, including everything to know about heart crystals.

What is Wedding Season in ‘Animal Crossing: New Horizons’?

Wedding Season takes place for the entire month of June at Harv’s photography studio. When you first log into the game this month, you should receive a call from Harvey. He’ll ask you to meet him at his studio, so head over to Dodo Airlines to catch a flight to Harv’s Island.

Reese and Cyrus, the owners of the Re-Tail furniture business, will be there to celebrate their wedding anniversary. Your goal is to set up wedding scenes and take photos of the couple. You have the freedom to decorate however you’d like, but Reese will have a few requirements in the first few days. There are also two types of scenes to create: the wedding ceremony and the reception.

You can return to Harv’s Island every day for the entire month to set up different scenes and earn a currency called heart crystals.

Happy June, everyone! With wedding season in full swing, I know Harvey can use a little help with photo shoots. Think you're up to the task? Go talk to him at the studio, and tell him Isabelle sent you. He'll be busy all month, so I hope you get a chance to help. pic.twitter.com/x4YCLpFVSN

What’s the deal with heart crystals, anyway? Every time you complete a photo session, talk to Cyrus before you leave to collect heart crystals. They should appear in your mailbox later. Once you’ve earned enough, you can exchange the crystals for wedding-themed furniture and clothing, again by talking to Cyrus.

As Animal Crossing World notes, the number of daily heart crystals you receive will depend on how you decorate the wedding scene. In the first six days of the event, you’ll have limited options for furniture. Then, on day 7, you’ll unlock customizations for each item. Reese and Cyrus will give hints about the theme they’re looking for every day, so make sure to pay attention. For example, Reese might ask for a chic wedding, so you should customize the furniture to the chic theme.

In the first week, you can earn anywhere from four to 14 heart crystals. Then, for the rest of the month, you have the chance to earn up to 18 or more heart crystals every day. The easiest way to max out heart crystals is to place the same wedding item repeatedly, such as the Wedding Bench.

Every Wedding Season item from Cyrus, Nook Shopping, and Able Sisters

There are plenty of items to collect during the wedding event in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. You can find them in three different locations: with Cyrus, in Nook Shopping, and at Able Sisters.

First, here’s a list of all the items you can get from Cyrus and how many heart crystals they cost. You’ll need more than 260 crystals to purchase everything, so start snapping those photos!
