Our wedding is on Saturday 11th August, and with all the little odds and ends that need doing just before the wedding I have booked time off before the wedding, and after of course to go on honeymoon....
I have booked off from Thursday 9th August, then we go on honeymoon for 12 days, land back in UK on Sunday 26th, the next day is August bank holiday Monday....and I have also booked off the Tuesday.....so will be returning back to work on Wednesday 28th August. so in total I will be having 19 days off.....if you count the weekends too..........I cant wait!

24 days for me...will not want to go back :(! C x

i work in a school and we are gettig married on 17th august, i think we break up the 20th July and i go back the 3rd Sept so im having a good few weeks off lol xx

I'm hoping to work three long days Mon Tues Wed the week before then have the rest of that week as my normal days off. Then two weeks holiday then work thurs Fri sat long days. Can't put my request in till next January though.

we leave on sat 8th sept and get back on the 19th so i think h2b will have from the 10th to 24th off.

if he had his way, he'd be doing overtime on the 8th and meet me at the airport and go straight from the airport to work on the 19th!! 'they can't cope without me'

3 weeks and 3 days for me :) get married on the Saturday so taking the Friday off, then dont go on honeymoon until the Thursday after the wedding for 2 weeks, I'm then off until the Monday after we come back...yay!! x

We got married on the Saturday of a bank holiday weekend - I had the Thursday & Friday before off and then we had 2 1/2 weeks off for our honeymoon

I haven't booked any time off work yet, i really should have a think about it. I get married just after Christmas and i am only allowed to have a certain number of days off in term time, ill have to think carefully!

Two weeks

I work part time (3 days a week)
Getting married on a friday (dont work fri's) so gonna work the monday of that week, take the wed & thurs off
Its bank hol weekend and i dont work tues so will go back the following wed for 2 weeks then off for prob 10 days, maybe 2 weeks for honeymoon in Sept

im having a few months off, im finishing work out here either this december or next feb, and then not going back to work until a month after the wedding. I'll never want to go back! x

I've got from the 13th September off, we get married on the 15th. I've then booked w/c 17th, 24th and 1st October off, so almost 4 weeks! Yay! But, that's mainly because it's a new job and they had to honor my time off.x

Kate B almost the same dates as us......I finish on the 9th, get married on the 11th and go on Honeymoon on Tuesday 14th, back on 26-7th (cant remember cos we fly through the night) off on the monday and tuesday, back to work weds 29th :(

I actully could take more , I get 30 days a year plus bank holidays, but Andy doesnt.

I will have 2 weeks off and that is all my choice for the whole year! I am a nanny and bosses choose other two weeks so they could be any time.

i had planned to take the week before my wedding, 2 weeks after for honeymoon and going back the following wed so 3 and a half weeks which got authorised. i then changed my job so i had the day before off and 2 whole weeks and the next monday/tuesday so it was just under 3 weeks 19 days x

I finished work on Friday 9th Sept and we flew out to Vegas on Mon 12th, then got married on the 15th. We flew back on the 21st, arriving back home on Sat 22nd (cos of time difference) and I started a new job (promptly to be made redundant!) on Mon 24th. SO I guess it was 2 weeks for me!

nicsqaured.....Yes I also might take TOIL on the wednesday that I break up, and finish at lunchtime or something. we work flexi hours so if I build it up I can take whole days off or an hour here or there off. All I'd have to do is go in 30 mins early every day for a week, and its built up 2.5 hours........and I can do that whenever I like so maybe even a month before I could do it and take off a few more days.

yeah I am a civil servant........ya know just like you with the great pension........NOT! (well not anymore anyway)

yeah great holidays........38 days a year....30 A/L and 8 bank holidays......

We're not having a honeymoon :( Tony's a teacher, and I'll be starting my training as an F1, so neither of us could get time off around the wedding... We're getting married on the Saturday, and back to work on the Monday.

i have booked 15 days off 2 days before the wedding and 13after the wedding for the honeymoon also managed to get the bank holiday on the end of the honey moon so i get an extra day off work for nothing!! :-) iy means i work a total of 7 days in the whole of august !!

I'm exactly same at MrsField2b!! :0D

Getting married Sat 15th September so i've booked Thursday and Friday before it off (13th & 14th) then we go away on the Tuesday after the wedding for 2 weeks but only get back on the Wednesday so i've booked 3 full weeks after the wedding and go back in work Monday 8th October!! H2B is same 3 full weeks off but don't think he can get the 2 days before off.


We said it'll be nice to have all that time as Sunday after the wedding will be a blur and we'll just want to relax, Monday we'll be sorting last minute bits for the honeymoon so then when we get home we can still have a few days to look forward too, to just relax and send out our thank yous, get in touch with our videographer and photographer etc....can't wait!!!

I work in a school so we break up on July 20th - get married August 11th - honeymoon on 18th August, dont return to work till sept 3rd (i think lol) given lots of time for last min bits n bobs before hand xx

joey86 changing the subject a wee bit, but do you work full time?

well I think you need to talk to your boss, as legally full time workers working 5 days a week are entitled to 28 days holiday a year. I will post a link on your page that say this. x
