Not including for HM?
We took two days before and the mon/Tuesday after, I think. Wedding was on a Saturday.
My coworker is getting married tomorrow and still came into work today!! 🤔

I had a destination wedding and worked until the day before we left. But I was at the destination for 10 days total and took an extra day when we got back.

I took Thursday and Friday off before my Saturday wedding.
My bff flew in Thursday and we went to my final dress fitting and then out for my "bachelor party". The next day DH and I had some errands to run like getting the marriage license.
Maybe your co-worker is a bit more organized than I was!

We got married on a Saturday. I took off the Thursday and Friday before. We left for our honeymoon the day after our wedding (regret that). We got back home at 6pm the next Sunday. I was newish at my job so pretty much exhausted all of my vacation so I had to go back the next day and that was awful. On top of that, our luggage was lost until Monday afternoon which didn't help. I had to go to the store and buy a bunch of essential stuff like makeup on Sunday night. Not cool.
ETA: I know makeup is not really essential but, you catch my drift

For the wedding.. 4 days? I honestly don't remember. I flew to CA a few days early to hang out with family and take care of last minute details. We didnt do a honeymoon.

I took the week of the wedding off since it was out of state. I was still available to work from home as needed the first half of the week. Then I was off for 2 weeks after for our honeymoon and recovering from the honeymoon!

Man, was a long time ago but I think I took Thurs & Friday off. Then I took about the next 3 weeks.

I took off Thursday and Friday before our wedding and possibly Wednesday. No honeymoon. Pretty sure my boss didn't think it was necessary to take off before the wedding. Oh well.

Got married on a Saturday and just took off the Friday before. It would have been nice to take off another day, but I took two weeks for my honeymoon.

My wedding was across the country on the Saturday of the three day weekend. I flew out on Wednesday and back on Monday.

I took the Friday before our Saturday wedding off and was back at work on Monday. We took our honeymoon 2 weeks later. So glad we didn't go right after the wedding!

I took a lot of time off! But to be fair, I worked 3, 12 hour shifts at the time so I was able to arrange my schedule so I had a ton of time off. I worked Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and then didn't get married until the next Saturday. I ended up using 72 hours of pto and was off for like almost a month including my honeymoon.

I didn't have a job since I had just graduated from college, so around two months.

I was on a two week break from grad school, so I had a week off before and a week off after for the honeymoon

For the wedding, just the day after. We got married on Memorial Day.
But I took a week before and week after our reception (honeymoon was after that). We were going to get married at that time, but moved it back to a small ceremony when DH was forced out of his old house (landlord was doubling the rent).

Wednesday, Thursday, Friday. I think my H only took off Friday, though (it's hard to remember at this point!)

I think I took Wednesday-Friday off. Wedding was about 3 hours from where we lived at the time. We left for our honeymoon the Monday after our Saturday wedding.

Our wedding was on a Saturday and I took the Friday before off due to wrap up last minute stuff and for rehearsal/rehearsal dinner.

Half a day, just because we had to go to City Hall to get some paperwork done. We kept the wedding pretty small and were able to do all the preparation on evenings and weekends.

I took the whole week, but DH worked the day before the wedding.

I took a week off. We were working opposite schedules and shifts at that time, and weren't going to have a honeymoon right away. So I took the weekend before off so we could actually spend some time together. Our wedding was very DIY, so I spent the rest of the week finishing up projects.

I took 1/2 day Wednesday, off Thursday and Friday. Married on Saturday, and came in to work on Monday. I left early that day LOL I couldn't focus and I was exhausted!

I think I took off 3 days before my wedding but it may have been the whole week. Then we had a 10 day honeymoon so it was almost 3 weeks total.
