Auspicious Wedding Dates in August 2027 2027年8月结婚吉日
There are 12 auspicious wedding days in August 2027 according to the Chinese almanac (黄历). None of the recommended days fall on a weekend this month.
Computed from the traditional Chinese almanac (黄历 / 通书). August 2027 spans the 6th and 7th lunar months of the 丁未 Fire Goat year. Solar terms this month: 立秋 (Start of Autumn) on Aug 8 and 处暑 (End of Heat) on Aug 23.
Folk note: 丁未 Fire Goat year (2027-02-06 – 2028-01-25) has no 立春 (Start of Spring). Traditionally called a “blind year” or “widow year” (无春年 / 寡妇年), some older relatives prefer not to hold weddings in it. Most modern couples ignore this; if your family cares, look at dates before 2027-02-06 or after 2028-01-25.
Part of this month falls in the 7th lunar month (Ghost Month, 鬼月), when many families avoid weddings. Dates in it are marked “Ghost Month” below and left out of our top picks.

★ = weekend. “Zodiac clash” (冲) is the animal sign the day opposes: if you, your partner, or the main person involved was born in that year, traditional advice is to choose another day.

How are these dates chosen?
Each day is checked in the traditional Chinese almanac: it must list 嫁娶 among the day's favorable activities (宜) and not among its taboos (忌), and it must not be a Break (破) day or a day marked 诸事不宜. Days on the Yellow Path (黄道), with favorable day officers or blessing stars rank higher. A day that clashes (冲) with your own zodiac animal should be skipped.
