what do brides eat on wedding day?

[JCJD]

I made a point to eat that day cause I also start to freak out if my blood sugar drops too much. I started the day with an early lunch with the BM''s and we arranged for an early dinner/snack from Subway for the entire bridal party and family who had to be there early for formal photos. Then, wedding at 7, and at the reception our caterer made us plates and pushed them into our hands (Yay!).

I had a hearty breakfast on the morning of my wedding with everyone who was in Jamaica with us, including my FI. At 11am, I was off to the spa for hair, makeup, mani/pedi & didn''t have anything to eat (aside from a glass of champagne & a "hummingbird"--a delicious Jamaican frosty drink which did have a banana in it...and lots of rum) until the cake after our wedding. (too busy, nervous, excited, etc.) I had 2 glasses of champagne at this time & it was started to go to my head. We had our wedding photos taken after this, then had dinner. I didn''t eat very much at dinner because I spent most of the time on the dance floor & talking with guests. (Also, I didn''t feel especially hungry as the corseted bodice of my dress was fairly tight.)

After we got back to our room & I changed out of my dress, I was ravenously hungry so my sweet hubbie went to the all-night beach bar to get me a snapper sandwich. I can''t tell you how delicious it was!

I certainly made up for the lack of food on my wedding day throughout the rest of our vacation at our all-inclusive resort, though.

UGH- I''m really going to have to watch what I eat on my wedding day. I bloat up like a balloon very easily. Any advice on how to avoid that? I''m pretty good with drinking lots of water, but need to make better food choices.

Once I''m at the wedding, all bets are off!! I plan to eat, drink and dance the night away.

Whatever anyone does, just make sure you eat before you DRINK!

I was so excited I could hardly eat anything, I didn''t even have an appetite for about 2 weeks before the wedding. But I did make myself eat on the day of the wedding, even though I wasn''t hungry. I should have eaten more before we started drinking champagne in the limo, though!
