Stardew Valley Expanded: Olivia Romance Guide
While the Stardew Valley Expanded mod introduces a whole range of fresh faces for players to get to know and love, Olivia is by far one of the most popular. While some of her popularity can be associated with the fact that she's kind of unlike any other character Stardew Valley or Expanded has to offer, the fact that she's romanceable is a bonus for many.
Some parts of Olivia's personality and lifestyle can seem pretty obvious thanks to her taste for the finer things in life. However, other details (such as her schedule) might not be as obvious. The sheer amount of brand-new features for players to get used to in this mod to can also be overwhelming. As such, this guide will help lay out the basics of Olivia so that getting to know her is a little bit easier.

Olivia's Regular Schedule For Every Season
Each character in the Valley has their own daily schedule they stick by, making it easier for players to memorize where they might be at any given time. While they may change it up depending on the season, the weather, and whether the player chooses to go the Joja route or the Community Center route, each character will tend to stick to the same places throughout the Valley.
Olivia is no different. She can often be found in her luxurious manor, visiting her friends throughout town, or checking in at the Saloon on weekend evenings. Keeping this in mind when she seems to be impossible to locate will help players in their time of need.

Gifts For Olivia: Likes, Loves, Dislikes, And Hate
Everyone in Stardew Valley loves receiving gifts. Gifting is one of the most useful mechanics in the game, particularly for players who want to get closer to a certain character to receive something from them (like a specific recipe), or for players who have romance in mind.
Unsurprisingly, Olivia has elegant tastes. She's especially fond of fancy wine, though not all alcohol is preferred; players should stay away from beer and mead. She also likes sweet things like chocolate, and expensive items.

Movie Theater: Olivia's Favorites
The Movie Theater added in Update 1.4 has been a great way of adding depth to the Valley and all its characters, thanks to both the ability to get to enjoy some extra time with your favorite pals and the amount of gameplay it comes with. The Movie Theater is pretty easy to understand: simply head to the Movie Theater and buy a ticket for 1,000g. To invite someone else along, buy a ticket and gift it to a character. Show up at the Movie Theater on the same day before closing time, and they should be there, waiting.
On top of this, there's a big selection of both movies and concessions for players to choose from that will impact how well their outing is received. If players choose a loved movie and a loved concession, their guest is sure to be happy, rewarding the player with a huge boost to their friendship.

Olivia's Heart Events
Heart events occur in Stardew Valley (and the Expanded mod) when the player grows close enough to a character to have their friendship move up. These events offer a better look into the inner life and backstory of a particular character.
Olivia has quite a lot of heart events, and some of them (including the first one) require something more from the player to make sure it triggers, such as specific weather or a certain amount of friendship with other characters. Similarly, for twelve hearts onwards, players need to be married to her to see these events.
Two Hearts: enter the Jenkins residence at any point. This will not take place if the player has seen Victor's 8-Heart event.

What Happens After Marrying Olivia?
After marrying Olivia, she'll move into the Farmhouse to live with the player. She'll also add a little area to the right side of the house with bookshelves, a computer, and an easel so that she can paint and read as usual. The small area behind the house will also be transformed into a small garden for Olivia to enjoy her wine tasting. Her schedule will remain much the same, with her visiting town to meet with Caroline and Jodi and for aerobics class on Tuesdays. She will also visit home on Fridays to check on Victor and the wine in the cellar.
Occasionally, the player will receive gifts from Olivia when talking to her throughout the day, such as breakfast in the morning or dinner during the evening. These gifts can include Coffee, Complete Breakfast, Energy Tonic, Omelet, and Wine.
