About a wedding or ROM dates
The almanac term for marriage is 嫁娶. The most popular wedding days fall on 成 Success, 定 Stable and 開 Open. We skip Destruction and Close days, year-breaker days, the eve of each season change, Yang Gong taboo days and the 7th lunar month.
The ROM (legal registration) and the tea ceremony or banquet can fall on different dates. Many couples use this page twice: once for a weekday ROM slot and once for the customary celebration, which is often booked a year ahead.
Add both partners’ birth years below. The calendar hides any day that clashes with either of you, which is the first thing a traditional date selection checks.
Questions about a wedding or ROM dates
Can the ROM and the tea ceremony be on different days?
Yes, and many couples in Singapore and Malaysia do exactly that. Choose each date on its own merits. If you only want to choose carefully once, the tea ceremony is the date families traditionally focus on.
Does the time of day matter?
For the tea ceremony and the fetching of the bride, many families pick an auspicious hour as well. This page covers the day only. A personal date selection report can include the hours.
What if my preferred venue date is a Fair day?
Fair days have no traditional exclusions. Their Day Officer is just not one of the three favoured ones. If it does not clash with either partner, it is a perfectly acceptable choice.
What about Hungry Ghost month?
Weddings are very rarely held in the 7th lunar month, and venues often offer discounts then for that reason. Those days are greyed out here.
Should parents’ birth years be checked too?
Some families also avoid days that clash with the parents, especially the person hosting the tea ceremony. Run a second check with their years if that matters to your family.
Want a date chosen for your whole family's charts?
Get a personal date selection report. It checks every household member's full BaZi chart, not just their animal, and suggests the best days and hours. Join the waitlist and we'll email you when it opens.
A simplified traditional method for reflection and cultural interest. For a wedding, a business launch or a major purchase, many families also consult a feng shui master.
