Auspicious Wedding Dates in Bihar 2025–2026 — Vivah Muhurat Guide
Planning a wedding in Bihar? Here are all the auspicious vivah muhurat dates for 2025 and 2026 — with seasonal guidance and tips for booking vendors early.
Why Muhurat Dates Matter for Bihar Weddings
In Bihar, the selection of a shubh muhurat (auspicious date and time) is not a formality — it is a deeply held tradition central to the wedding process. Families consult their family pandit months in advance, cross-referencing the couple's kundali with planetary positions and the Hindu calendar to identify the most auspicious windows for the vivah ceremony.
Understanding the muhurat calendar also helps you plan practically — peak muhurat dates mean venues and vendors get booked out months ahead.
Peak Wedding Season in Bihar
The primary wedding season in Bihar runs from mid-October to mid-February. This window aligns with the most auspicious muhurat dates in the Hindu calendar and Bihar's most pleasant weather (15°C–28°C). Key festive periods within this season include:
- November — Multiple auspicious muhurats; one of the most popular months
- December — Strong muhurat dates; cool, comfortable weather for outdoor functions
- January — Makar Sankranti onwards sees a cluster of popular dates
- February — Basant Panchami to Maha Shivaratri (timing varies by year)
Important Muhurat Dates: November 2025
November 2025 has several widely accepted auspicious dates for vivah:

Off-Season Weddings in Bihar — Worth Considering?
The secondary wedding season (April–June) has fewer muhurat dates but offers one major advantage: venues and vendors are readily available and prices are 20–30% lower. Summer weddings require good AC arrangements and indoor venues — but for families with fixed budgets, the off-season can deliver the same quality celebration at significantly lower cost.
Note: Monsoon months (July–September) typically have very few or no auspicious vivah muhurats in the Bihar panchang.
