If you want to be sure this is diagnosed correctly and promptly, have the
car flatbedded to a mechanic who has an engine analyzer that can handle an
old timer like this. There are many possibilities, some of which you can
check yourself, but many that would probably take you way too much time to
learn about and accomplish. If the engine is mechanically sound, a good man
with an analyzer can get it running like a new car in a few hours.
If you are located in the Southern CA area, e-mail me privately and I'll try
to help you get the car ready for your big day without using up your
precious few remaining days of freedom. And, congratulations on your
upcoming wedding!
