About
Tulsi Vivah is kept on the twelfth tithi of the bright half of Kartika, the day after Devutthana Ekadashi, in November; some households perform it on the Ekadashi itself or on any day up to Kartika Purnima. The ceremony is held at dusk, so the day whose pradosh carries Dwadashi is chosen. Tulsi is married to a shaligram stone or an image of Vishnu with the full wedding rites. The day marks the opening of the wedding season after chaturmasa.
How it is observed
A mandap is set around the tulsi plant at dusk and the wedding rites performed, followed by a feast.
