Editorial Summary & Key Highlights
DrikPanchang lists six auspicious marriage dates in July 2027, calculated for Jaipur: the 1st, 7th, 8th, 9th, 11th and 12th. Five of them fall between the 7th and the 12th. The 12th is the last auspicious marriage date of the season, and the next one is 10 November, a gap of almost four months caused by Chaturmas. The windows are wide rather than narrow: the 1st runs from 2:50 AM on the 1st to 5:37 AM on the 2nd, and the 8th from 12:18 AM to 5:40 AM on the 9th. The constraint is the number of dates, not the hours inside them.

July 2027 has six auspicious marriage dates, and the last of them is the 12th. After that the calendar carries nothing for almost four months.
The dates
The six are 1, 7, 8, 9, 11 and 12 July.
“The competition is for the day rather than for the hour inside it.”
Five of them sit in a single week, from the 7th to the 12th. The 7th opens at 6:43 PM and closes at 11:58 PM under Magha. The 8th picks up twenty minutes later, at 12:18 AM, and runs to 5:40 AM on the 9th, which then continues to 6:16 PM. The 11th and 12th work the same way, running from 11:04 PM on the 11th through to 11:56 PM on the 12th under Swati.
The 1st stands alone at the start of the month: 2:50 AM on the 1st through to 5:37 AM on the 2nd, under Rohini, a little under twenty-seven hours. Only the 8th runs longer.
Then it stops
12 July is the last auspicious marriage date until 10 November. That is a gap of nearly four months.
The cause is Chaturmas, the stretch that Vishnu is held to sleep through, and it closes the calendar every year. We have written separately about why there are no Hindu weddings from July to October. Nothing about venue availability changes it, because there is no date to book.
What six dates in a closing month means
A family that has not married by mid-July is waiting until November whether it wants to or not. That makes the first fortnight of July the last exit before a four-month hold.
The windows are not the constraint here. The 1st and the 8th both run for more than a full day, the 12th covers eighteen hours, and the 9th covers a normal working day from 5:40 AM to 6:16 PM. The constraint is that there are six of them and then nothing, so the competition is for the day rather than for the hour inside it.
Before you commit
These timings are calculated for Jaipur. A muhurat window is derived from local sunrise, so a list computed for another city will not give the same start and end times, and a window that opens at 2:50 AM in one city may not do so in another. Check the timing for the city where the ceremony happens, and confirm it with the priest conducting it.
The full year, month by month, is in our 2027 muhurat calendar.

The acoustic sitar during midnight pheras is such an inspired touch. Finally a return to soul over decibels!
Loved the breakdown of vintage zardozi craftsmanship. True luxury takes thousands of hours.
