Unfortunately, I have rarely had a satisfactory answer.
That is because the plans, by necessity, have been flexible.
Because of his job, Chris is not able to take off much time in a reliable fashion. That is, his schedule for the month of May has his working Wednesday-Sunday with his days off Monday and Tuesday. He requested to use vacation days (the whole two that he gets to last him until October) for the day of the wedding and the day after (Saturday and Sunday). He only got Saturday off via this request. He also got an unpaid day off on the Wednesday after the wedding.
Thus, as of right now, Christopher is working the day before the wedding, the day after, has the day off for the wedding itself and has Mon-Tues-Weds off after the wedding.
He has requested that his coworkers agree to work his shifts for the 20th and 22nd (Friday and Sunday), and also for the full week+ following his days off.
He will be doing everything that he can to get all the time off that he can, but depending on the factor of time our honeymoon will be one of three options:
- A week or more using his uncle's vacation home in the Florida Keys
- A few days in San Diego
- A few days in Carmel-by-the-Sea/Monterey
Right now, though, I am less concerned about whether or not we're able to take the week+ in Florida, but more so that Chris not be scheduled to work at 5am the day after we get married....or be scheduled to work until 12pm on the day of our rehearsal.
Wish him luck!
