Short answer
The 7th house is the main house of marriage. The 2nd (family), 11th (fulfilment) and 8th (marital longevity) are also studied, along with Venus and Jupiter.
The detail behind it
Marriage is read from the 7th house, its lord, Venus (and Jupiter in a woman's chart) and the D-9 Navamsa. Timing comes from the dasha of planets linked to the 2nd, 7th and 11th houses, confirmed by Jupiter's and Saturn's transit.

Frequently asked questions
Which house in the kundli shows marriage?
The 7th house is the main house of marriage. The 2nd (family), 11th (fulfilment) and 8th (marital longevity) are also studied, along with Venus and Jupiter.
Can astrology tell the year of my marriage?
Yes, within a range. The dasha of planets linked to the 2nd, 7th and 11th houses, confirmed by Jupiter and Saturn transits, usually points to a one- or two-year window.
What if I do not know my exact birth time?
Share the approximate time and a few major life events (marriage date, job change, a sibling's birth). The time can be rectified from these events.
Can I ask about a family member?
Yes, with their birth details and consent. Many people consult for their children's education or a sibling's marriage.
