How far in advance did you request the time off?

I'm getting married next month and I requested my time off in March.

We are getting married the same day right before spring break so last week I told my boss about taking week and a half off but I only can do it officially six months before. So she'll get my papers on 09/24/17

I'm getting 2 weeks off. Getting off the Wednesday before the wedding (on a Saturday) honeymoon Sunday to Monday, returning to work Wednesday. I told them about 4 months before since another one of my coworkers will be leaving for maternity leave around the same time

My boss knows my wedding date (is invited too) and she knows my honeymoon plans. I haven't officially put anything in our time off system yet. I probably will once it's like Feb/March

I put my request in today September is a busy month for us and I don't want to hear it if I don't give them enough notice.

I'm actually thinking I should mention the time I want fo take off soon but I won't make an official request until my honeymoon details are finalized.

I put in the time as soon as we booked the venue, so over a year in advance.

I just started a new job...I made sure they knew and approved before I accepted the offer just to make sure!

I've told my employer but we don't have to put in PTO until 6 weeks before the date.

I put it in my PTO request since march and I have a feeling I won't get my week off and if I get it I need to look for coverage for my shift

Ugh! My boss informed me requesting 2 weeks off was career suicide... she said when people can afford to take 2 weeks off it the company realizes they can manage just fine without you

I put my request in 3 months prior

I just put my request in, my boss knew I was getting married!

I told my job as soon as we set the date even though I couldn't officially request off that early. I'm gad I did too because I got a promotion to another department and my old director was able to vouch for the days as if they were pre-approved. Especially because I'm getting married on a holiday weekend

I put it on our department calendar over a year ago. No one knows that I am getting married and I don't plan on making any announcement. In our company people come and go and take 2 to 4 weeks off depending on your level. Half of the folk there have gotten married, had babies, and no one knew until after the fact. LOL! I work for such a weirdo company. SMH

I requested the time off about 5 mouths out.

@MrsRushinin2018 Your boss sounds like a jerk! Can't believe she said that to you.

I'll be switching commands in the navy so I haven't been able to ask yet. I don't think I'll know for sure until about a month out. Definitely stressing me out

I told my boss when I was hired in may that I would be getting married in September, so she was aware up front (yes, I'm the person that gets a new job a few months before getting married). We actually talked about it this week so that we can make sure my responsibilities get covered while I'm gone. So, officially, like 6.5 weeks?

I put mine in over a year in advance. Then I followed up to make sure it was going to be given to me before I booked my venue.
