Explore everything, get your stats to 15 at least.

Pillory is where you are free to roam, and wedding talking to the bride ends the chapter.

you mean when you finished the wedding the game ends for now and we will got to buy the season pass to see the whole story?

[MrMinMax]

No, you get to the main chapter/map.

Do the Sidequest .. i was full on Tracks from this moment to the next Map... i had to travel back for 200 Bucks to do the most sidequest ... and the bad impact is that the most sleeping places are gone

First thing I'd do is go to Semine to get a horse, then you can do whatever you want.

Just FYI, i almost done with 1st part of the map. lvl20, 50 hrs.

Well I was going to get mutt at the beginning . But then encountered some bandits then some other stuff and so on and on .. now i'm almost 20h of play time and just got mutt back!

[Humpenstilzchen]

I would recommend to explore and do sidequests first. There is a lot to discover.

For those who wonder take this map as a prolouge as once you complete the wedding mission you unlock new map that's 7x bigger and of course 7x more ♥♥♥♥ to do enjoy the game guys I'm at 40h on the first map I can't imagine what the second one will be

I been wandering around looking for my dog etc finding my feet and got a horse, figuring out what I can do, oh and I found a nice sword, taking my sweet time.

Level up. And don't ignore stealth and thievery. The mission after the wedding is challenging if you rush to it.

[Unforseen_Queefer]

if you do the side quests after the pillory you will level up which helps allot mid game when you leave for Kuttenburge. also doing all the sidequests will net you 100 hours about of play time plus working on training. do note depending on some options you will lose access to side content later.

For the additional story context, you should do all poaching sidequests before going to the wedding.
The rest of sidequests you can do after the wedding, if some of them get cancelled, doesn't matter as those aren't related to the main story for all I remember.
