Bianca, it's the only right answer for me. And i think that is the one that make more sense storywise.

 

[Tezca]

Debora, so your MC can be forced to sleep on the floor beside his loving wife.

 

[Patapolis]

the childhood friend deserves a win now and then, marry bianca.

 

[Tonberry]

Bianca is the only one you have a connection to in the beginning, but my favorite is Nera because I like her design the most, and she’s a great mage in her own right.

 

[Stingy Perry Stingy Perry]

On my play through I married Bianca well I just feel her character that’s all.

I think Nera is prettier ngl

Listen to your heart

 

[Grumpy_Old_Man]

Bianca is the only one you had any kind of prior experience.
Nera you see her in the ship at the beginning at then after the "disaster" her father throw her at you, it seems more of a political marriage to me.

 

[RageBurner]

My heart says Bianca, my eyes say Debora.

 

[Ikagura Ikagura]

Ah, the debate before "Tifa vs Aerith".

While I think Bianca may be the canonical couple I feel that marrying a childhood friend is a bit too close.

I mean she's basically like a sister minus the biological aspect so it may feel weird (well, for me at least).

Spin a wheel if you haven't already decided. Or open up multiple saves for each.

 

[Sir Auriel of Lionel]

Save scum or pick the girl most pleasing on the eyes.

 

[JustLooking123]

I only played it once, and only the snes version of it (in that version, there's just two girls to choose from, not three)

Spoiler: Potential Spoiler?

It seems the choice doesn't significantly affect the overall story.

Yeah, Debora was a later addition.

It really doesn't affect the story much other than a few scenes sprinkled here and there and the appearance of the couple's children later down the line.

 

[MistHunter]

Bianca, by far. The hints are in the night before the marriage.
In PlayStation 2 remake version (If I'm not mistaken), not only is Bianca and Nera, also, Bella/Honey the Fairy can be married (yes, the one who needed your help in saving spring, in childhood).
No matter who you choose, they are different in combat style, topic apart.

 

[naizou's icon naizou naizou]

My heart says Bianca, my eyes say Debora.

I think exactly the same as you, brother.

 

[JustLooking123]

...also, Bella/Honey the Fairy can be married...

Are you sure? I can't find any info about her being a marriage candidate!

 

[Ikagura Ikagura]

Anyway, Bianca for strength, Maria for magic.

 

[Logi]

me.

 

[MistHunter]

. . . I don't know why or how. JustLooking123, I'm sorry u_u;

Found more information...
The Devs considered Bella as a potential bride, but due to several details regarding story continuity (and gameplay logic), they decided not to include her... Apparently...

And the stranger thing is, she can level up, beyond of the SFC version.
It makes me suspicious of something. I think that as soon as I get a chance, I'll play all the versions and check something out...

 

[RookerSalen]

I like pretty woman

Then it likely just means her as a marriage candidate is cut content. Can’t she level up because she briefly joins your party when you visit the fairies? She’d obviously have a stat sheet then.

I'm suspicious, more than cut content, she can be a possible permanent member (at the least), if I do some play time, and making some experiments, before the marriage.

You can probably hack her playable. You can probably do the same thing with Harry or even Pankraz, since they’re bound to exist in the database.

Unless they somehow share the same IDs.

I don’t think you can marry her since that content likely doesn’t exist at all.
