It's called the "Feast of the Holy Spouses" (sometimes also referred to as the Feast of the Espousal of The Blessed Virgin Mary and St. Joseph).
In the accounts we have of her visions, Blessed Anne Catherine [Emmerich] claims to have been transported to the marriage of Mary and Joseph and witnessed the ceremony. Blessed Anne Catherine offers details about the wedding and explicitly mentions the date of marriage. She writes: 'The espousal took place, I think, upon our 23rd of January. They were celebrated in Jerusalem, on Mount Zion, in a house used for such feasts.'
Another mystic, Venerable Mary of Agreda (1602-1665), also claims to have had visions about the wedding of Mary and Joseph. Her account of the wedding provides detailed descriptions of such things as the dress Our Lady wore, the stateliness and attractiveness of St. Joseph, and the joy experienced by everyone in attendance.
