Move Up the Wedding?

This past Saturday, I had a meeting with my mentor and she strongly suggested that I move up my wedding from July 16, 2016 to early June 2016. Her reasoning was that since I am going to be a resident and transitioning from my first year to my second year at that time, leaving in the transition period for a wedding could be viewed negatively especially since I am going into such a male dominated field. She also added that my plan to have children in residency should also encourage me to lay low for as long as possible. On the one hand, no one thinks 4-6 weeks is a big deal, but on the other hand am I letting my work determine too much of my personal life? Our date is close to our anniversary and doesn't really have that much sentimental value but I just booked my venue and this is really stressing me out. No one else seems to get it, so I wanted to see what the wise women of WW think. Do I move it to lay low? Or do I make the guys suck it up and realize my wedding is a big deal to me?

    I agree with the others and would move it up if that would be better professional. The week before my wedding I tried to work but I was so busy doing last minute things.
