How is Tulsi Vivah celebrated?

The legend, drawn from the Padma Purana, is among the most poignant in the Vaishnava tradition. Vrinda, daughter of the asura king Kalanemi, was a great devotee of Vishnu and married to the asura Jalandhar; her chastity (pativrata-dharma) was so absolute that no god could defeat her husband. To break the curse her devotion held over the world, Vishnu took the form of Jalandhar and approached her — when the deception was discovered, Vrinda cursed Vishnu to become a stone (the shaligram) and immolated herself.

Significance of Tulsi Vivah

Tulsi Vivah (तुलसी विवाह) is the ceremonial marriage of the sacred Tulsi plant (Holy Basil, Ocimum sanctum) to Lord Vishnu — performed on the Dwadashi (twelfth tithi) of the bright fortnight of Kartik month, the day after Devuthani Ekadashi. Across India, this ritual marriage is treated as the first wedding of the new season, and the unofficial beginning of the household wedding calendar after the four-month Chaturmas pause.
