So..maybe this is not so much study plan related, but this board seems pretty active and I need some advice. 

My wedding is on April 10, 2010... got engaged in December 2008 after I had already paid for Becker review and to take the exam.  I was hoping to have finished the CPA exam by this point; however, I have one more part to pass (FAR).  All this time I have been studying and planning my wedding, but now that the wedding is getting so close I am really feeling the stress of work, wedding and CPA exam.  I would love to take FAR at the end of February (currently scheduled 2/27), but I can't get focused on studying. 

This time around is a retake for me since I have already taken FAR and failed with a 64.  My credit for BEC expires 11/29/10...so that would give me 3 testing windows available to take it after my wedding (if I should need all of them). 

My question is ---Should I wait to retake FAR until after my wedding or take it in February? 

I don't want to regret not having taken it in February...and I would really like to have it out of the way before I am married. 

What would you do?

I say retake it while the information is fresh in your mind... Use your craziness as motivation to sit down every day for ______ hours and get it done... If you pass, awesome, make sure you put the effort into passing, if not, well get through tax season and your wedding and move forward... I would not wait... Maybe move it up to first part of February.. cram out your studying and get it done.... Plus the longer you wait, the more NEW information they could throw out at you..... Get in, get it done and move one....
