We got married on a Sunday and I took Friday off, mostly because my family flew in from across the country. Our honeymoon started that Monday and we were gone for 5 days.
I was working for my in-laws at the time so time off wasn't an issue.

We got married on a Friday (yes, we're those people), and I took Wednesday, Thursday, Friday off. We took the next two weeks off for our honeymoon to Europe, so it was about 2 1/2 weeks off total. I cannot fathom going back to work right away. I was freaking exhausted.
I got married on the Saturday of a 4-day holiday. I took one additional day after that. Neither DH nor I had the time off work to go on a honeymoon (I was interviewing for other positions and had used my PTO on that; DH was in a high-powered temporary job where he couldn't be away). We also scraped together the money to pay cash for our wedding with only a 2-month engagement, so we had no money for a trip.
