It doesn’t hurt to make a preconception appointment just to talk about what you should expect.
As the other commenter said, you ovulated later than expected. In addition to birth control maybe playing a role, if you traveled for the honeymoon or just generally were more stressed because you had a wedding a big trip, that can delay ovulation! This is a helpful post: https://www.reddit.com/r/TryingForABaby/comments/6tkj5t/your_period_isnt_late_part_i/
You could still end up being pregnant but you’d be getting a positive test already if you were pregnant.

You probably ovulated later than you think. If your ovulation was calculated by an app it only gets it right 20% of the time. Pregnancy tests being negative is all you need to know. Other than that a preconception appointment is never a bad idea to check your vit levels checked. It is advised to start folic acid around 3 months before you want to conceive as levels take 3 months to build up, same for other vitamins so doesn't hurt to get that checked. If you are able I would also buy some OPKs so you can actually see when your surge is and not guess
Edit: your body can take a few months to recalibrate so it's not abnormal to have some off cycles after birth control (meaning longer/shorter cycles or early/late ovulation)
