I'm scheduled to take the GMAT on May-02. I have a friend's weeding to attend that'll keep me out of town on Apr 29 & 30. No chance of any study happening on those 2 days. Is that a good thing because I shouldn't be over-exerting (or even exerting maybe) myself a few days before the GMAT or is that a bad thing because that's the time for me to be revising all the stuff I can?
I will only be able to study on May-01 this way. Maybe that's fine because I got 700 in PowerPrep and that'll be a great score for me in the real thing, but all sorts of crazy thoughts are entering my mind and I'm wondering if I might end up getting a litttle rusty due to this 2 day break (just a little slip and I'll be below the 700 level!)

Honestly from past experiences with any standardized test like the GMAT two more days of studying wont make a difference. You aren't going to learn anything new and you shouldn't forget anything in two days. The only issue would be if you spend those couple days focused on it and seem like a miserable person at your buddy's wedding. A couple days of relaxing and taking your mind off the test probably will do you some good.
Besides if you bail on your friend's wedding this late in the game to study you are going to lose a friend. I know when we had people not show up at our wedding after RSVPing it is taken as an extremely rude gesture and generally is close to unforgivable unless its for a damn good reason, i.e. medical emergency. Skipping to study for the GMAT would be in poor taste. So relax, enjoy it, and flirt with the bridesmaids.

you should have some rest before the test day. but it is not wise to take 2 days off completely. you should study less in the 2 days, but still study every day so that you are warm to the questions. For example, if you study 4 hours every day usually, now you may just study 1 hour in the last 2 days, doing a few questions in each section. This should be enough rest.
! SSSSStrike! 
than 
at the wedding.
hummm....
