When Should One Take Norethisterone To Delay The Periods Cycle?

I want to take norethisterone to delay my period for my wedding . However I would prefer to not be taking the tablets leading up to my wedding / honeymoon as I get very bad bloating and id Have trouble remembering to take them with all the excitement and other stuff going on. So my question is would I be able to take them this month to push my cycle back ? Do they work like that ? So if i take them this month will my next period be due from first day I bleed or will it just go back to my normal cycle ? Thanks
