[Beta] Is it not possible to get married on Spring 28??
All right, I'm tearing my hair out here because I don't know what the heck is going on anymore.

So, it's the end of spring and I've decided to finally settle down and marry Sebastian. However, the Flower Festival is imminent, so I wait until the 25th to propose to him. All is well and good, and by my calculations, our marriage should happen on the 28th. (Which isn't a festival or anything else that should conflict with a wedding.)

Except it doesn't. The 28th dawns as a normal day, nothing happens. I go to Summer 1, and the wedding STILL doesn't happen.

Okay, I tell myself, it's a bug. I made a backup save file, so I swap out the files and try again. This time, the marriage happens...except, bafflingly, it happens on the 27th, only two days later rather than three. I had been kind of hoping for it to be the last day of spring, so I decide okay, maybe if you propose early enough in the day(I proposed to Sebastian at 9 AM sharp on the 25th), then the counter starts on the day of proposal. Or maybe the beta tweaked the wedding countdown so that it counts the proposal day. So, I decide to go for the 28th by swapping in my old save (again) and proposing on the 26th this time. Surely, I think, the wedding will trigger on the 28th now.

I'm sure you can guess what didn't happen.

So, someone tell me - WHY can't I get married on Spring 28? I've got a decent number of mods, but nothing that should be doing this. I can settle for a Spring 27 marriage, and I'm likely to after all this mess, but I've gotta know why it's not working.

Just my idea and I am not sure but could it be because it is the end of the month? Perhaps the game is set to not do something like that then? I truly don't know just throwing that out there.

What does it matter what specific day you get married on...?

It doesn't significantly, but I thought it being on the last day of the month would make it easier for me to remember. (I've forgotten real life anniversaries in relationships with real people.) Also, my first playthrough, there were cherry blossom petals falling that day, and I thought it would be cool to get married on a day with them falling...although upon investigation, technically 'wedding' is a weather flag set by the game, so I don't think you can have seasonal debris weather on the same day as your wedding anyway. But I didn't know that at the time. Also, as the game kept refusing to work predictably, I kind of just wanted to try forcing it to have on the day I felt I was actually supposed to be getting married.

Again, though, at this point I'm just going to settle for Spring 27. It just bugs me not knowing why the game won't give me the 28th. I've never heard of people not being able to have weddings on the last day of a season before.
