  • Tell your manager — about 2 months beforetype the date
  • Send the written application and apply in the leave system — about 6 weeks beforetype the date
  • Hand over your work and set the out-of-office reply — about a week beforetype the date

Questions

How do I write a leave application for my own marriage?

Address it to your manager, put the dates in the subject line, say when and where the wedding is, ask for leave for the exact dates, say which leave you use and how you will hand over your work, and thank them. The template does all of this.

How many days of marriage leave can I take?

It depends on your company's leave policy: some give special marriage leave, others ask you to use earned and casual leave. The Excel planner shows how the days are split.

Should I send it by email or on paper?

Both are common. The document has a formal letter for printing and a short email version; also apply in your HR leave system.

How early should I apply?

Tell your manager about two months before and send the written application about six weeks before, especially in the wedding season from November to February.

Can I use it for a sibling's or friend's wedding?

Yes, with small changes: replace «my marriage» with «the marriage of my brother/sister» and shorten the dates.

Is it free? Do I need to sign up?

It is free and you do not need to sign up: fill in, see the result and download the file. With a free account you can save a copy to your Layers and come back to it later.
