If you’re using video games to help cope with the current state of the world, it’s ok! You’re not alone, and sometimes tuning out for a little bit will help your mental well-being in the long run.
The game that’s being used the most for just this type of virtual escapism is “Animal Crossing: New Horizons,” and we can’t think of a more calm way to spend a few hours. Today marks the first day of June, and that means a new crop of fish and bugs available in the game.
ALSO, June means WEDDING SEASON! (Thanks to Polygon for their writeup about Wedding Season which you can read here.)
HOW TO GET WEDDING FURNITURE AND CLOTHING
Head to Harvey’s Island over the course of many days and do the following:
- Talk to Reese. She will request a specific setting for a photo.
- Make a set using the furniture in the “event” tab that fits her requirements. You can access this furniture by pressing Down on the d-pad.
- Take a photo of the couple.
- Talk to Reese again for your reward.
- After you complete the event for the first time, you’ll have to report to Harvey to start the event all subsequent times.
(Thanks to ComicBook for this list that they complied using the New Horizons Fandom Wiki entry for semi-completeness.)
