Wedding dates in 2024, from the Chinese almanac
The days in 2024 the almanac lists Weddings (嫁娶) as good for, and not also as to avoid: 128 of them, 34 at a weekend.
Custom adds one more rule: skip a day that clashes with the year animal of anyone it is for — two branches six apart, directly opposite, clash (Liu Chong, 六冲). Stricter practice also skips a day that clashes with the animal of the day each person was born on. Enter the birth dates and those days drop out.
