1. Yes, you can book a visa slot before marriage.

2. No one knows. Book you ticket after getting a visa.

You can book an interview slot before marriage but can not attend an interview before marriage as they need your marriage certificate.

The answer is yes.

 

what is the time lag between an OFC and consulate interview I think its 1 day. check it out online.

 

Why you need to complicate things unnecessary. get married , you get the marriage certificate the next day after marriage,  get your marriage registration ceremony before if you want,

then go for OFC and consulate. Re-arrange your time that's all.

 

ease yourself. Since you will go for H4 which is dependent of H1B. 

 

Congratulation on your marriage.
