One should select the auspicious time and auspicious Muhurat for marriage very carefully. While deciding a Vivah Muhurat several aspects should be kept in mind. Jyotish calculations and Muhurat computations should be considered to select a good and precise time for marriage. Not only is it important to consider the Kundali of the bride and groom but it is also equally important to take into consideration an auspicious day and Yoga to decide upon the right time for marriage. 

It is very important to consider 10 Doshas while deciding the Muhurat for marriage. These ten Doshas are Lata, Pat, Yuti, Vedh, Jamitra, Panchban, Ekagarl, Upgrah, Kranti Samay and Dughda Tithi. 1) Panchban - Panchban has (1. Rog, 2. Agni, 3. Nrip, 4. Chor, 5. Mrityu). These Five Banas are considered bad. Out of them, the 'Mrityu' Baan is not taken during the calculation. We must discard the 3. Vedha, Mrityu Bana and Kranti Samya. We must never accept them. Now have 7 Doshas left which must be analyzed with Jyotisha. If according to Jyotisha calculations out of these 7 if 4 Doshas are left, then we use the Lagna Shuddhi (Analysis of the Janmakundalis of the groom and the bride). If the Kundalis are suitable then these Doshas are considered cancelled too. 

According to astrology, there are certain phases or periods which are not considered auspicious to perform marriage rituals. These phases are: displacement of Venus and Jupiter, Solar or Lunar eclipse, Pitra Paksha, Bhishma Panchak etc. Performing marriage ceremonies in these periods is not considered auspicious. Only auspicious dates are considered to conduct a marriage in Hindu culture.

Moon sign of the bride and groom are taken into consideration while calculating an auspicious date for marriage. Other factors such as the phases of Nakshatra in which the bride and groom were born and the letter corresponding to it are also considered while calculating the date. The date of the marriage is calculated only after matching the compatibility charts of the bride and the groom. The date which is auspicious for both the bride and the groom as per their Moon signs respectively is finalized for marriage. For example: If an Aries man is getting married to a Cancer woman, then the common dates thus calculated will be auspicious for marriage.

All the important factors such as Tribal Shudhi, Surya Chandra Shudhi etc. are taken into consideration while calculating marriage dates. If Sun or Jupiter are in their own sign or in the friendly sign of , they are considered auspicious for marriage. At the time of marriage, the bride and the groom should donate things related to the inauspicious planets to maintain the auspiciousness of marriage rituals.
