Request Validation

$validation = $this->validate($request, [
    'date' => 'required|date_format:Y-m-d H:i:s|after_or_equal:startDateColumn|before_or_equal: endDateColumn',
    //...
]);

Elequent Query Check

$date = date('Y-m-d H:i:s');

$count = Model::where('startDateColumn', '>=', $date)
              ->where('endDateColumn', '<=', $date)->count();

Then 

if($count > 0) {
  // ...
} else {
 // ...
}
