Kindly note that emergency contraceptive pills contain high dose of hormone. It is known to cause disruption of menstrual cycle. As in getting married, it is understood that sexual intercourse will happen regularly. It is advised that you seek consultation of nearby gynecologist as soon as possible, and start using regular methods of contraception. As well as get sorted for this time's irregular bleeding

Some bleeding is expected after emergency pill because that’s the way it prevents pregnancy, by inducing periods. Since you are married, switch to low dose hormone pills. The one you took is very high dose, equal to 8-10 daily pills. Also it has 20% chances of failure. I’m sure you wouldn’t want to have irregular periods and be stressed about pregnancy all the time
