Just a Snack...




Your wedding day will be a very long day that goes very quickly. Regardless of how nervous you are, you should try to eat a healthy breakfast and lunch. Even fresh fruit, cheeses, and veggies are better than going hungry. Keep yourself hydrated with plenty of water and not alcohol or sugary, caffeinated drinks as these will zap your energy level later in the evening.

At a recent wedding, I started my own little tradition for the bride and groom. I cut two small pieces of their wedding cake and put them on a paper plate. Then I wrapped it in plastic and added napkins and a couple of forks for them to actually enjoy their cake during their limo ride after the reception.

You might want to ask your caterer or wedding coordinator to put a small care package together for you at the end of the reception. Your nerves and stress level will be a lot lower after your reception. And by that time, you may want to eat a little something to round out the evening. It would be a lot more enjoyable (and healthier) than running through the Taco Bell drive through in your wedding dress.

Happy Planning
