How many days are you taking off of work before the wedding?
Original post by fallchick
I am getting married on a Saturday and I am not sure how many days to take off prior. I definitely put in to take off the Friday before and the Monday after. We aren't able to go on a honeymoon until several months later. FH is a a teacher.
Do you think I will need the Thursday too? Everyone keeps telling me there will be so much to do. Am I being really naive or over esimating how much I will get done prior to tat week?
Please give me your opinions.

i took two... thursday and friday. i was approved for 2 personal days even though i had the following week off (im a teacher)
honestly, i needed it.... thursday was all the last minute details and my RD. friday, was a few more last minute details, getting my nails done, picking up my dress, and spending time with some overseas guests that came over for the wedding. i was so relaxed by the time saturday came around because i took the extra time.
i also went right into my honeymoon and cme back only day before i had to be back to work so it was nice to get everything out of the way before we left.

I'm taking the week off before and then we're going on our honeymoon the week after (wedding is on a Saturday, we will leave for HM on Monday). I have vacation days that I have to use or I lose them, so no prob for me.

I am getting married on a Sunday, and at this point, I am taking Friday off. Being that I work in the courts, we have Veteran's Day off that week as well, and depending on how many comp days I have, I might take another day, but I need that week more to update my case files for any people covering my cases in court rather than wedding stuff

I'm getting married on a Sunday and don't plan to take off of work before the wedding. I plan to take off 2 weeks after for the honeymoon and getting settled in after we're back.

I end school at the end of June, so I will have about a week before. Next summer will be the first summer I have taken off. I get so jealous of my friends who don't do summer school!

i took 3 days that way i can spend some time with my OOT guests, and also we are having the batchelorette party, and RD in those days too so i figured working before of after batchelorette party would best be avoided and i want to spend time with peopel i rarely get to see

I'm getting married on a Friday and have the day before off. If everything is done at work though, I'll take off an extra day early.
