CHOOSING THE WEDDING DATE

Marriage is one of the most important events in a person’s life, therefore, it is always paid much attention. 

To ensure a happy and prosperous marriage, wedding day should be celebrated at an auspicious time. While Viet Namese people have a fortune-teller choose the date, the Thai people often find the help of monks or astrologers. As for monks, they will depend on the birthdays and the time of birth of the couple.  It will be the day or the time which is not incompatible with their ages

 On the other hand, as for astrologers, they will observe lunar calendar and the harmony of the stars. It is believed that the day on which the stars are compatible is the best choice. 

Another thing is that the time also relates the number 9 such as 09.09 because 9 is the lucky number in Thailand.
