There is something vaguely magical about a wedding day from the promise of eternity to the union of two people who love each other. If you are recently engaged or in the process of planning your wedding, astrology can help you choose a date that is written in the stars just like your love story.
While there is no such thing as a "perfect" wedding day, searching the stars for a lucky date can provide you with a map of unique energies to work with or, of course, to avoid. Each planet has its own significance, as do the horoscope signs they pass through.
By consciously planning your big day according to the cosmos, you can create a day that is special to you and your version of eternal bliss.
When choosing the perfect date, let the planets be your guides. For example, Venus is the planet of love, beauty, relationships and celebrations, so transits of Venus are key to setting the stage for your big day.
Jupiter is no exception, as it is the planet of luck and expansion and is often considered the "man archetype" in a birth chart. You'll also want to consider the moon (both the phase and the sign it's in), as it affects the emotions and overall mood of your day.
If you're familiar with reading your birth chart, look at your seventh house of engagements, marriages, and contractual agreements. The horoscope sign on the cusp of your seventh house (along with its planetary ruler) can tell you more about your relationship dynamics and the type of energy that best matches your engagement style.
In the meantime, read on for the best days to tie the knot in 2025.

The Moon is in Taurus on this day, which is great news because the Moon likes to be in Taurus, so emotions and the general atmosphere are stable. This is the perfect energy to start a marriage with that calm and stable vibration that will be constant and long lasting.
Ruler in Pisces—corresponding to Taurus, ruled by Venus—brings romance and magic as in a dream, given that the planet of love also appears here, which equates to themes of love and romance that are sensual, empathetic and deeply spiritual. With these two planets in a harmonious position, this day is equally appropriate and magical to tie the knot.
