hey Mike
First, congratulations on your wedding and marriage. Much happiness and joy to you and your wife-to-be...
Um, my experience with weddings is that fatigue and EXHAUSTION are the most you feel at the end of it, depending on how much partying, rehearsals, all the Aunties and Grandparents and relatives you never even knew you HAD appear out of the woodwork and expect you to entertain them .. ...
Anyway, you sound like you've already made your mind up, which is perfectly fine, no laws broken!! Best advice Debbie stated ... load up on protein FIRST, and vegetables ... then indulge in the carby foods. The meat will slow the blast of carbs into yer bloodstream AND will fill you up a bit so you're not so tempted to go hog-wild with Aunt Mabel's potato salad, and cake. Same idea for the drinks. Eat first, and try if you can to drink lots of water too, maybe alternate drinks, so every other glass is water, or club soda with a wedge of lemon (very trendy and kewl .. )
For the record, 8 fl. oz of Coke Classic has 27.0 gm carbs.
All the best, and by the way, we want to see the wedding pictures ...
