OMs- were you able to eat at your wedding?

knitting_vixen, 14 May, 2011 at 17:55 Posted on Planning 0 9

A few married ladies have told me that they were so nervous/excited that they did not eat on their wedding day!

I can't imagine that, I really can't!

    I ate! Though not as much as I would have normally. Not through nerves though, I was recovering from a tummy bug the weekend before!

    I ate but wasn't that hungry (which is a rarity for me, being a sturdy).

    I basically ate my way through the entire weekend. My appetite failed me several times on our honeymoon though. Delayed nerves, I reckon.

    Gosh, the transition is seamless - have just realised I responded to an OM's thread and was 'allowed' to!

    I barely ate all day. No breakfast, one canape that was fed to me, my 3 course dinner was shared between my dad and H and I had one bit off the buffet that I pinched off MIL's plate and half a piece of cake. I don't know if it was excitement or something else but I just didn't feel hungry all day!

    Breakfast was fine (smoked salmon and scrambled eggs so quite light!). Lunch - a bit hit & miss, couldn't eat the savouries but chocolate brownies went down OK!

    I really struggled to eat the wedding breakfast though. It was so delicious, but I was quite constricted in my dress and genuinely didn't feel I could fit much in! And I didn't even get a look-in for the evening buffet - just couldn't consider eating another thing.

    Tis a shame really, as we had put so much effort into choosing our food and I then didn't really get to enjoy it as much as I would have, had I not been the bride! But everyone else really enjoyed it and what I did have was absolutely wonderful - just couldn't manage much quantity!

    I nibbled at breakfast and did the same at lunch as I was so nervous ,but pretty much ate all of my wedding breakfast as the need to be nervous had gone by then!! I didn't eat much buffet until we'd got back into our room once it had all finished but that was mainly because I was still full from dinner.

    I had bacon sarnie for breakfast and then picked at the dinner it was too hot to eat which was a shame as the food was gorgeous x

    I ate fine, takes a lot to put me off my food!

    I didnt get married till 3pm so my mum made lasgane for everyone at the house first and then we had a carvery as our meal, was yummy so no way I wanted to miss out.

    But then I didn't feel nervous on the day at all (which is so not like me as I am a total worrier!). I think I had stressed before so much that all the things I was worried about were things that would stop the day happening so when it got to the day, I knew I was going to get to marry my perfect match, everything else seemed insignificant - how did I get so soppy!
