Lendemain de or du

On a quiz, it says the answer is “le lendemain DU mariage” not DE mariage.  Why?  All the samples say DE.

Hi Jackie,

It is because it is,  'the day after the wedding'

de+le= du 

Le lendemain du mariage

In the lesson, you are given -

Le lendemain de son départ The day after he/she left

La veille de ta naissance The day before you were born

Hope this helps!
