[Avodah] Truth about the Sheva Brochos

"Fact: There is no obligation to have
festive meals during the week following
a wedding celebration. However, if
the chatan (groom) and kallah (bride)
participate in a festive meal made in
their honor in which certain conditions
are satisfied, sheva berachot,
seven blessings, should be recited."

The main condition as I recall is that there has to
be someone new present. There's certainly no chiyuv
to have sheva brochos for a week for the same participants.
However, I believe the chosson and kallah are not allowed to
work for the whole week.
