The Best Gifts for Elliott: Likes, Loves, Dislikes, and Hates
Everyone loves receiving gifts, and the inhabitants of Stardew Valley are certainly no different. Giving gifts to players' favorite characters benefits everyone, too, but it’ll benefit the player most of all - giving gifts means raising friendship, and raising friendship meansreceiving treats in the mailand, most importantly, a closer relationship with the person they’re giving gifts to.
Elliott’s taste in gifts is just as simple as his schedule, so there’s thankfully not too much to remember. It also helps that many of his liked and loved giftsrevolve around the oceanor are supplies that many players will naturally find on their farm, like Duck Feathers. His disliked gifts are similarly easy to remember and avoid too, making Elliott a good choice for early-game befriending!
Movie Theater: Elliott’s Favorites
With the Movie Theater beingadded in Update1.4 came the ability to invite the players' favorite characters to go see a movie. Taking advantage of the Movie Theater and everything it has to offer is simple; all the player has to do is visit the Movie Theater and buy a ticket for 1,000g. If the player would also like to bring someone else along to see a movie, buy a ticket and gift it to a character to invite them along. Then, show up at the Movie Theater at some point on the same day.
While at the Theater, players can choose different movies and concessions that will impact each character differently. By inviting a character to see a movie they love and by buying them snacks they’ll enjoy, the player will receive a huge boost to their friendship withtheir chosen partner.

Elliott’s Heart Events
Heart events occur when the player becomes close enough to a character they’ve gotten lots of friendship points with. They’re something of a reward for achieving such a close relationship. Elliott has several heart events, beginning at two and ending at fourteen. Some have specific requisites to trigger, so be sure to plan accordingly.
What Happens After Marrying Elliott?
After the player and Elliott are married, he will move into the Farmhouse alongside the player. He will add his own small room to the right of the Farmhouse with several bookshelves and barrels, and he’ll set up a small garden behind the farmhouse where he can be found reading. His schedule doesn’t change very much after marriage, and on Mondays, he will continue to visit the beach.
On rainy mornings and mornings when Elliott will stay inside all day, he may offer the player Coffee. On rainy evenings, he’ll make the player a choice of Baked Fish, Chowder, Fish Stew, or Fried Calamari. On New Years' Eve - Winter 28 - he willgive the playera bottle of Wine to celebrate the new year.
