Hey Bro,
It seems like you have already made up your mind not to get married in this summer and not to let her apply for F2 visa. But here are the facts. You can't sponsor her for the financial support since you are currently a full time student in USA. Either your parents or your parents in law can sponsor her for the F2 visa. And if you let her apply F2 visa right after the marriage in this summer, it will be around 1 year before your graduation. So, I don't think it will be a reason for the slim chance of visa approval. The good thing is that she doesn't have to fly to US right after her F2 visa issuance. She can finish her study until the end of 2013 and fly to USA whenever she is ready, probably before your graduation ceremony. My wife also applied F2 visa almost a year before my graduation and she was issued 5 years multiple visa (F2). I can't gurantee that your wife will also get 5 years multiple visa but I can assume she may get at least for a couple of years if she get visa approval. Once you get married, you guys don't wanna live separate for a long time. So, I think that it's a golden chance to give a try and bring her to USA. I know you also have an option to apply for her once you get your H1B visa. But it might take little longer since you have to graduate, apply for OPT, get H1B application approved. It's your life and you have to make decision. Your parents are in Nepal and they don't know everything about your real situation. You are the one who has to deal with all these issues. So if you think that getting married in this summer and apply her for F2 visa is a better option, you should be able to convince your parents for your good. I guess that your parent's condition of your graduation prior to your marriage is to motivate you for your graduation first so that you don't get distracted. If you think that you may get distracted with your wife being together before graduation, you can bring her at the time of your graduation although she may have been issued visa already.
If you are still confused about what could be your better option. You can spend some bucks and get an appointment with immigration attorney to discuss your matter about your immigration issues. Anyway I wish you good luck for your dicision.
