Short answer: Marriage muhurat 2027 opens once Dhanu kharmas ends around 14 January, with Makar Sankranti on 15 January. Vasant Panchami on 11 February and Akshaya Tritiya on 8 or 9 May are the days families ask about most. Weddings pause again for Meena kharmas from about mid-March to mid-April and for Chaturmas, roughly July to November. The final vivah date and hour come from both your charts.
The three wedding windows of 2027
The year has three open stretches. I give you the edges, not a list of “lucky” dates, because a date that suits one couple can sit badly with the next.
- Mid-January to mid-March. After Sankranti on 15 January the calendar opens. Vasant Panchami on 11 February falls here, and halls fill up fast.
- Mid-April to early July. Meena kharmas ends when the Sun leaves Pisces, about mid-April. Akshaya Tritiya on 8 or 9 May is the big day of this window. The stretch closes when Chaturmas begins at Devshayani Ekadashi.
- Late November to mid-December. Dev Uthani Ekadashi ends Chaturmas, and weddings run until Dhanu kharmas starts again around the middle of December.
The month-by-month picture for every kind of event, including vehicles and griha pravesh, is on my shubh muhurat 2027 page.
Shukra and Guru must both be visible
Venus stands for the marriage and Jupiter for blessing and dharma. When either one travels too close to the Sun, it is called combust, or asta. Traditional practice does not fix a vivah while Shukra or Guru is combust, even if every other factor looks good.
Through most of 2027 Jupiter is in Leo, having entered it on 31 October 2026. I never quote the combust weeks from memory; I check them in the panchang for your city and strike out any date inside them.
Months the elders leave out, and why
The two kharmas are the Sun’s months in Sagittarius and in Pisces. Chaturmas is the four-month rest of Lord Vishnu, from Devshayani Ekadashi to Dev Uthani Ekadashi. Most North and East Indian families will not hold a wedding in any of these. Some families follow a regional calendar, so tell me which tradition your side keeps. The solar eclipse of 2 August 2027 falls inside Chaturmas anyway. Every Ekadashi of the coming year is on my Ekadashi 2027 list.
Nakshatra, tithi and the lagna of the pheras
Inside an open window I narrow down by three checks. First the nakshatra of the day. The classical vivah stars include Rohini, Uttara Phalguni, Hasta, Anuradha and Revati, among a few others listed on the hub page. Second the tithi. I skip the rikta tithis, the 4th, 9th and 14th, and Amavasya.
Third, and the one people forget, is the lagna at the actual moment of the pheras or the kanyadaan. A day can be right while the hour is wrong. I look for a rising sign that keeps the 7th house of that moment clear of Mars and Saturn, then give you a time band the pandit can work with.
Both charts decide the date
A wedding has two people in it, so I read two birth charts. Tara bala is counted from each person’s birth star, and chandra bala from each person’s Moon sign. A day that is weak for the bride or for the groom drops off the list. I also look at the dasha each of you will be running that week.
The muhurat comes after the match is settled, not before. If you still need the charts compared, start with kundli matching, and if a relative has quoted a score at you, my gun milan page explains what those 36 points measure. Couples marrying by their own choice still want a good day for the registration or the reception, and I handle those the same way; the chart side of that is on love marriage astrology. Whether 2027 suits a wedding at all is a separate question, answered on marriage timing astrology.
What to send me
Send the birth date, exact time and place for both of you, the months your families can manage, and the city of the wedding. Mention fixed points too, like a hall already booked or leave from work abroad, so I work inside them.
Wedding dates left in 2026
Short answer: after Dev Uthani Ekadashi on 20 November, the 2026 wedding season is short. The dates most panchangs agree on are 21, 24, 25 and 26 November and 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 11 and 12 December. On 16 December at about 9:30 am IST the Sun enters Dhanu, kharmas begins, and most families wait until Makar Sankranti in January 2027.

| 24 Nov 2026 | Tuesday | Rohini | Window opens late in the day |

| 12 Dec 2026 | Saturday | Uttara Ashadha | Last date before kharmas |
I checked the nakshatra and tithi for each date at New Delhi sunrise and compared them with published panchangs. Lists differ by a date or two, so I have kept only the days that several agree on. The exact hours change by city, and a date that suits the calendar still has to suit both of you, which is why I read both kundlis before I suggest one. You can book that reading here. If you are planning for next year instead, the 2027 windows are above.
Frequently asked questions
When does the marriage season start in 2027?
After Dhanu kharmas ends around 14 January. From Makar Sankranti on 15 January the panchang opens again for weddings, and the first window runs until Meena kharmas begins in mid-March.
Is Akshaya Tritiya a good wedding date in 2027?
Many families treat it as auspicious on its own, and it falls on 8 or 9 May depending on your panchang. I still test it against both charts and pick the hour, because a crowded festival day is not automatically right for you.
Why can’t we marry when Venus or Jupiter is combust?
Venus rules the marriage and Jupiter the blessing over it. Tradition holds that a wedding should not start while either is hidden by the Sun. I confirm those weeks from the panchang and avoid them.
Can we have a wedding during Chaturmas?
Most families wait until Dev Uthani Ekadashi in November. If you must marry in that time, for a visa or a posting, tell me early and we can talk through what your family is comfortable with.
How much does a marriage muhurat reading cost?
A reading of one kundli is ₹1,499 for 45 minutes. A wedding date needs both charts, so for a couple the fee is on request; tell me when you book and I will confirm it.
