35. I Choose You!

Give the Preserved Flower to all of the available marriage candidates before you get married, and then pick one to get married to. Bon Viviant, Harvest Goddess, Huang, and Kappa are not counted in this achievement because they don't have romantic heart events and cannot accept a Preserved Flower. If you have met the requirements, this achievement will unlock after your wedding, hence the "I choose you" portion of the achievement.
