Selecting Traditional Chinese Wedding Auspicious Dates – Masters

Picking an auspicious Date (择吉日/ 看日子) is important to ensure that everything goes well on the wedding day and also so that the couple could have a happy marriage. You have to provide birth dates/ time of bride and groom, date of birth of parents. Gregorian dates are fine as they can convert them to lunar (Chinese calendar) dates. You will be asked if you want to have your wedding on the first or second half of the year, then they’ll narrow down some dates for you to choose. The dates are chosen by an experienced master according to Chinese Astrology. Generally, 7th (ghost month) and 3rd (Ching Ming) lunar month are not suitable for weddings. Get red packet ready to give to the sifu (master).

Located above Bangunan Ka Yin Fui Kong in Petaling Street, this master is widely sought after for selecting auspicious wedding date.

Review

Apr 2015: Info required are couples data and time of birth, Parents Chinese zodiac, Wedding date range, first or second half of the year, where would the groom leave from to fetch the bride for the ceremony. The dates available as calculated from our birth date and time were then sent to us later that evening. The fee was RM 250 just to get the dates and once we had confirmed the date, we would need to reply them and also we would get some free gift. To see the Master Loh himself, that would cost additional RM 50.

Review

Mar 2016: “Loh Tim Kee” is well-known for their Chinese traditional wedding services since the 60’s. Everyone there was incredibly nice and friendly, they sell a lot of wedding stuffs too that we will definitely need for the traditional ceremony. The ‘sifu’ guided us through and helped us choose the best dates available for our big day this year. It is pretty much a step-by-step process. First you get a few choices of good dates, then you will need to bring those dates and ask whether the venues are still available. If not, C H O O S E again. The process will go back and forth for quite a few times.
Jan 2011: We wanted to go to this famous shop to get some auspicious dates for our chinese wedding ceremony dates. The shop’s name is Loh Tim Kee, the charge to get the dates was RM100, plus a few wedding accesories included and heaps of chinese hokkien tradition advice. It was money well spent as we got some very good dates and both sides of our parents have agreed to it.

7. Hanlim Name Analysis Services 罕霖名理学社

Review Oct 2016: I found out from a girl friend who recently got married that the process is not only simple but also very cheap, I immediately asked for the business card. I emailed the form and received the reply from Master the next day. Two of them were Saturdays, one was Sunday, I wanted a Sunday. I immediately called and confirmed. You need to let Master know, because he is going to figure out the betrothal and “fetch the bride” dates. The master is Hanlim Name Analysis Services.
