Hindu Wedding Dates 2026–27: Shubh Vivah Muhurat, Lagan & Shaadi Saya Calendar

Choosing the right date is one of the first — and most important — decisions in Indian wedding planning. Whether your family calls it the shubh vivah muhurat, lagan, shaadi saya, sahalak, or marriage muhurtham, the principle is the same: the wedding is timed to fall on a day and hour considered astrologically auspicious for the couple's new life together.

Here's a month-by-month look at the auspicious Hindu marriage dates for the upcoming wedding season, based on the Hindu Panchang — along with what it means for couples planning to celebrate at The Vivaan Hotel & Resorts, Karnal.

Why There's No Shaadi Season Right Now

If you've been searching for a shubh muhurat for marriage between August and October, you've probably noticed something: there isn't one.

This isn't a gap in the calendar — it's Chaturmas, the four-month period considered inauspicious for weddings and other major ceremonies in the Hindu calendar, followed by a Prohibited Solar month later in the same stretch. No lagan dates, marriage muhurtham, or shubh vivah muhurat fall in this window, which is exactly why so many families end up shifting their wedding dates to November and December instead.

The good news: the season opens up properly from the third week of November.

November 2026: Shubh Vivah Muhurat Dates

Only a handful of days carry an auspicious marriage muhurat this month, as the season is just getting underway after Chaturmas.

-November 20, 2026 (Friday) — Nakshatra: Revati
-November 21, 2026 (Saturday) — Nakshatra: Revati
-November 24, 2026 (Tuesday) — Nakshatra: Rohini
-November 25, 2026 (Wednesday) — Nakshatra: Rohini, Mrigashira

November 20–21 is expected to be one of the busiest wedding weekends of the season across North India, with venues booking up quickly around Delhi, Chandigarh, and Karnal.

December 2026: Lagan Dates & Marriage Muhurat

December brings the strongest run of shubh vivah muhurat dates before the year closes — seven auspicious days in total.

-December 1–2, 2026 — Nakshatra: Uttara Phalguni, Hasta
-December 3, 2026 — Nakshatra: Hasta
-December 4–5, 2026 — Nakshatra: Swati
-December 11–12, 2026 — Nakshatra: Uttara Ashadha

The first week of December (1–5) and the second Friday–Saturday (11–12) are traditionally the most in-demand lagan dates of the winter wedding season, and banquet halls near Delhi and Chandigarh fill up early for these dates.

What About January and February 2027?

The next wedding window opens again in mid-January, once Kharmas ends, and typically runs strong through February. We'll publish the full shubh vivah muhurat list for January–February 2027 as the Panchang for that period is finalised — in the meantime, get in touch with our wedding team if you're planning a January or February wedding and want to lock in your preferred weekend before the calendar is confirmed publicly.

A Note on Muhurat Timing

These dates are based on Panchang Shuddhi (Nakshatra, Tithi, and Yoga calculations) for the Hindu marriage calendar. The exact auspicious window — down to the hour — can shift slightly depending on your city and your family's specific traditions (Gujarati, Marathi, Tamil, Telugu, Bengali, and other regional panchangs sometimes vary). We'd always recommend confirming the precise muhurat timing with your family priest or astrologer, especially if kundali matching is also part of your planning.

Locking Your Date at The Vivaan

Because auspicious dates are limited — sometimes just two or three days in a month — the best banquet halls and lawns near Delhi and Chandigarh get booked well in advance of the shubh muhurat itself.

At The Vivaan, couples get:

-Multiple banquet halls and landscaped lawns to host every function on a single date
-A prime location on NH-44, Karnal — easy access for guests from Delhi and Chandigarh
-Dedicated wedding planners to coordinate décor, catering, and logistics around your chosen muhurat
-Comfortable rooms and suites so your family can stay together through the celebrations

If your family has already picked a lagan date, or you're still deciding between two shubh muhurats, our team can help you check venue availability and plan around it.
