Is it an undergrad degree, or graduate?
I got married the week after I passed my oral exams for the PhD (which were preceded by exams every 2 weeks for 10 weeks). Planning a wedding at the same time as studying for comps actually worked well for me; I could procrastinate from one stressful thing by working on the other.
Which is to say, 21 year old kids I could see waiting. Grad students who are already living together, no big deal.

Med school.

Which is what they are. (Well, him.)
Wait, your parents are threatening to disown their about-to-be-a-DOCTOR son? Man. That's like the holy grail, right?
A Grail
tainted with whiteness.
Holy grails don't marry white women.
Will he be busier and more stressed right after med school as an intern or whatever?
It's up to your brother in the end, though. Which way is he leaning? Or maybe I should ask, why did they plan the wedding for next May?
I think they wanted to do it sooner rather than later, from what my FSIL said. I'm not sure which way they're leaning, though. I know they were about to send out the invitations; she just asked me for my address recently.

Don't know. Who went to med school?
Wait, do we have any doctors here? I can't think of any. That seems weird.

Not until July, usually. (Best friend is doctor!)
To expand, match day (where they find out what internship they matched with) is in March and, as far as I know, most internships start in July. Some fields may have other commitments that need to be fulfilled during that time (maybe boards? I'm not really sure).

He sure will! (I dated a woman through her last year of med school and the first of her residency)
His residency hours will be insane and he'll have a hard time getting time off. He'll have more time for a honeymoon and setting up house and getting married now.
My ex-the-medical-student worked 100 hour weeks for two years after medical school. And she wasn't doing surgery or anything like that. She was a pediatrician.
