    2 days before the wedding and the following Monday. We won't be doing an immediate honeymoon. So, I'll be taking off 5 days total.

    I'll be taking two days off before the wedding (thurs & fri) and then two weeks off after. One week for the honeymoon and one week just to relax! So a little over two weeks off total. Can't wait!

    I'm technically taking 7 days off from work, but I will be out of work a week and a half. Three days off before, then we have a Monday holiday, plus four days. We will have 6 nights in Florida, we will be heading down the day after the wedding.

    I took 1 day before the wedding, my work ended up kicking me out at noon the day before I saw scheduled to leave. They knew I was stressed. Then took 7 days off for the Honeymoon.

    2 weeks! One before because we’ll have to travel to the wedding and then one after to actually get to enjoy time with friends and family since we aren’t in the area often. Will be honeymooning later- may have to wait till 2020 because I’m hoping for at least a 2 week honeymoon!

    We're torn between Hawaii and Puerto Rico. We love Hawaii and my fiance has only been once, but we've never been to Puerto Rico... So not sure yet but will be making a decision soon.

    Our awedding is on a Friday so I'm taking off Thursday - Sunday to spend time with my children, our friends and family. Our honeymoon won't be until a year after the wedding. Planning an over seas trip.

    I’m having a destination wedding so I’m taking no days off before the trip but I arrive 3 days before the wedding. I’m taking a total of 10 days.

    I'm taking the time off before to help my grandmother with the cupcakes and finishing touches on the decorations. Then we leave the Tuesday after the wedding for the honeymoon and will be back two weeks later. Then I have to turn around and drive to Portland for my niece's high school graduation. Then we will be back both be. Back to work on the 10th of June.

    I'm taking the day before my wedding off (Friday) - maybe Thursday too, still deciding. Then I'll be gone Thursday evening - the next Thursday for my honeymoon and probably not go back to work that Friday. One more day to relax.

    About 2 and and a half weeks. Taking a day and a half before wedding date, then 2 weeks for for honeymoon (including travel days). Considering taking a day or 2 after to just chill at home, but not sure yet.

    I took the day before the wedding (which was on Saturday), then the week following for our honeymoon. We were home to pack/rest the day after the wedding and the Sunday following our vacation the week after.

    Depending on your PTO, I would recommend taking two days before the wedding and maybe one day the week back after the honeymoon. It's hard to do a full week back at work after being gone so long.

    We're getting married on a Saturday. I'm taking personal days the Thursday and Friday before hand. I'm taking the following week off for our honeymoon, and then I actually have that second week off because I work at a school. We'll see if that plan flies with my boss..
