Why Jalandhar-specific timings matter
Standard muhurat lists are calculated for Delhi or Ujjain. Jalandhar is at 31.33N latitude and 75.58E longitude, which shifts sunrise, sunset, Rahu Kalam, and Lagna timings. A muhurat that starts at 7:15 AM in Delhi may start later in Jalandhar. Using generic timings can mean performing the ceremony during an inauspicious window in your actual city.

Typically 40-60 auspicious marriage dates exist per year after filtering out inauspicious months, tithis, nakshatras, and planetary conditions. The exact number varies by year based on planetary positions. Some years have fewer dates due to extended inauspicious periods like Adhik Maas.
Q.Can we marry during Sawan (Shravan month)?
North Indian traditions generally avoid marriages during Shravan. South Indian traditions (Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam) do not observe this restriction. If the family follows North Indian customs, avoid Shravan. If South Indian, Shravan marriages are acceptable.
Q.Is night marriage muhurat valid?
Yes. Many traditional Hindu marriages happen at night - the Brahma Muhurat (before dawn) is considered especially auspicious. What matters is the Lagna and Panchang at the exact marriage time, not whether it is day or night.
