At around 1:00 am one morning, I was simultaneously somehow resisting and reaching for sleep by mindlessly playing a word game on my tablet when the between level advertisement showed up. I’d seen this one before, just like all the others, more times than I could count, but this time it caught my eye in a different way. I decided I would download the app and give it a shot. That is how I found the Lovestruck app (Voltage Entertainment).
While perusing for a new story to read, as the series I had been reading had just finished, I decided to tap on this one story I hadn’t looked into yet, as the cover art hadn’t interested me. Instantly captivated by what I saw beyond the cover, I devoured the entire interactive series as quickly as the chapter tickets could regenerate in my off hours. Havenfall is for Lovers became one of my new favorites.
Havenfall is for Lovers follows the main character (referred to as MC from here on out), a young woman living in the small town of Havenfall, Indiana, USA with her younger sister. Unbeknownst to the MC, and most of the town, Havenfall is also the home of several supernatural creatures whose lives tend to draw even more, usually putting the MC and her sister in mortal danger. In the spirit of Lovestruck’s format, there are several love interests to choose from, each coming with their own unique story. However, one of the common grounds for each of these stories is that the MC will eventually marry each of the love interests later in their routes. This leads to the creation of this list.
Today I will be ranking the wedding outfits for the MC from Havenfall Is For Lovers. I will not be including the spouse’s outfit or the wedding venue on this list as those each deserve lists of their own. This list is purely based on my opinion and is meant for entertainment purposes only. All images featured are property of Voltage Entertainment used for critical purposes only. The images used provide one angle or view of the outfits in question. In the game, there is also a front view character facing shot available as well, used to provide more detail from the waist up.

#6 – MC’s Purple Outfit with Feathered Cape (JD’s Route)
The only thing I struggle with these lists more than picking a number one is deciding who has to occupy the bottom slot. There is nothing inherently wrong with MC’s outfit here. It just doesn’t scream wedding outfit to me. I love the detail on the lacy top and the purple sneakers MC is wearing in full view shots. Her hair is in a loose bun in classic MC style, keeping that formal-but-not-too-formal look throughout. The only thing I could have done without is the feathered cape. It felt too on the nose for our angel and looked out of place on what is otherwise a pretty casual outfit.
That said, I really do like this outfit. I can pick several other outfits from other stories that it would have beaten handily, but Havenfall has the distinction of having really good wedding gowns for the MC in every route. It was just slightly outclassed by the rest.
#5 – MC’s White Tank and Skirt Two Piece (Razi’s Route)
I love the golden detailing on the tank and think MC’s hair looks divine here with her coordinated hairpiece. The high-waisted skirt is a beautiful length in the front though with the sea breeze blowing the skirt back, the length of the fabric behind her makes me wonder if it’s set up more like a high-low skirt, a fashion trend I’m not a huge fan of. I do really appreciate how MC’s djinn-like tattoos on her shoulders and chest are on full display at this family event, subtly pushing the message that she’s one of them now. Overall, a cute look, but not my favorite.

#4 – MC’s White Pantsuit (Vanessa’s Route)
I love this MC in white. I wish we could have seen more. The white pants in the full view fit her like a dream. I wish the sleeves of the blazer would have been as clean and fitted as the rest of the ensemble, but I like the way the blazer fits everywhere else and the lacy shirt beneath adds a hint of texture detail so desperately needed. The lack of accessories works beautifully to emphasize the outfit, but that hair…I don’t like it. There’s something about the awkward rose-shaped/knot spiral above the forehead that I just can’t get behind. Otherwise I think this MC is just gorgeous, and her crossbow wins her bonus points of badass.

#3 – MC’s White and Black Embroidered Gown (Diego’s Route)
When I was first making this list, I thought this look was going to be my number one for sure. I love the amount of detail on the dress and her red shoes add the perfect amount of color to an otherwise black and white affair. Her hair is smoothed into a clean chignon and those elbow length gloves are to die for. I just don’t like the way the skirt is cut, again with the high-low. Everything else about it is just stunning, but in a list where we’re splitting hairs all from last position to first, a minor detail like skirt cut becomes important.

#2 – MC’s Light Pink Wedding Gown (Mackenzie’s Route)
This
color is just stunning on MC. I adore how they didn’t go with
classic white or even black for her wedding to Mackenzie and instead
used an unusual color for a couple that was pretty low key and
standard in a lot of ways. Her flower crown of pink and white flowers
help keep the look formal without making it something out of place
for Havenfall. Her sparkly looking combat boots are what pushed this
over the edge for me into second position. The entirety of Mackenzie
and MC’s relationship summed up in one outfit and I couldn’t be
happier for it.

No matter how beautiful MC looked in any of these outfits, there’s still one that I liked better than the others.
#1 – MC’s Off the Shoulder White Gown (Antonio’s Route)
This
looks really caught my attention at first with the MC’s make-up,
which is significantly darker than any the MC had worn with the other
love interests or on her own, all of which tend to stay pretty
natural. Her dark red lip and thick eyeliner help bring attention
rather than detract from the MC’s vampire and Lady of Blood status
by enhancing her red eyes and pale skin. Her
hair is done up into a loose low bun, allowing her a few strands to
artfully frame her face with but not be so unkempt that it takes away
from her otherwise sophisticated appearance. Her
white floor length
gown is embellished on the bodice with ivory
detail, keeping the dress itself from being too plain. MC is also
wearing large diamond earrings to match her huge wedding ring,
fitting with Antonio’s penchant of extravagant wealth. Her white
shoes work perfectly with this outfit that really doesn’t need a
colored shoe.
