How much time do you plan to take off work (if any), for your wedding and honeymoon? Just a few days before and after? A couple of weeks? How much time off are you taking?
I had three weeks vacation and used them all for the wedding- the week before and 2 weeks after. It was nice to have all that time off, but then I had no vacation time for the rest of the year.
A full month! We are having a destination wedding in Prince Edward Island. We are taking a week and a half before the wedding to spend quality time visiting my family on New Brunswick and PEI before the wedding then off to Switzerland for three weeks after!
It's a little stressful taking such a big chunk off when we have so much to pay for (our cows are also meant to be calving while we are gone!) But we agreed that we are only getting married once so we may as well make the most of it!

2.5 weeks, plus whatever day for the Bridal Shower 😎
I only work 3 days a week, so Im taking 2 days off before and 1 after (that'll give me 7 days off). We aren't going on a honeymoon right away so that's it.
I'm freelancing and in the middle of a job search; but provided I'm in an office by then, I'd take 3 days prior to the wedding and at least 1.5 weeks after. If I'm still freelancing by then, I just won't take any new projects during the month of August.
I'm a stay at home mom so technically I don't get time off lol But my fiance is taking 9 days off before the wedding and 10 days off after the wedding. We are getting married back home in Ontario so we are also using this time as a vacation to visit our friends and families. It will be out first time back since we moved here to BC last March.
Nothing is set in stone but I'm thinking of taking off 2 days before the wedding and maybe a couple after, but we don't have any plans for a honeymoon just yet. It will depend on a few factors close to the wedding date.
I'm taking 0 days off before the wedding, but luckily my work schedule is rotating so I happen to have the Friday and Saturday off before our (Sunday) wedding. Then a full week after that to visit my FH's grandfather in LA, who will be unable to attend the wedding due to illness, and another 3 weeks in September for our actual honeymoon.

1.5 weeks for the wedding and 2+ weeks for the honeymoon!
I am taking 4 days off before the wedding. With family flying in, last minute prep, and hopefully finding time to relax a bit I am definitely looking forward to the time off!
The honeymoon is about a month later and I am taking a week and a half off for that
