Ask your self if you would be willing to quit if you don't get the time off. If you aren't, defer your start class until after your wedding.
Also, putting two high stress events together in the same time period probably isn't a good plan either. If you haven't had the chance to drink from the 121 training fire hose before, you will be in for a very hectic and intense time. Outside issues are only going to cause problems for you in the training environment.
FWIW
^^^^^^^ very good advice!
