Got engaged and ready to get hitched? As soon as the wedding date is fixed, preparations begin at a fast pace as there are endless details to be taken care of to ensure everything goes on perfectly on your special day.

Following a proper diet plays a vital role in keeping you active, energetic, nourished and glowing. Here, we bring you some pre-wedding diet tips following which the bride and groom must follow.
It is vital to have small meals throughout the day and keep up your energy levels. Skipping meals must be avoided as it lowers your energy levels and makes you look dull and depressed. While having meals, look for the right foods that include a lot of vegetables and fruits that are full of essential minerals and vitamins. Go for salads, brown rice, whole grains, and other highly nutritious food options. If you don’t have enough knowledge about which food option is right for you, it is recommended to hire an experienced dietician who can prepare a food and diet chart for you as per your precise body requirements. You can even consult your dietician to prepare a healthy and tasty catering menu.
Drink at least eight glasses of water every day to flush out harmful toxins from the body. Make it a point to carry a water bottle with you when you go out for shopping and keep taking small sips to keep yourself hydrated. It will also keep you away from hunger pangs and binging on unhealthy food.
While keeping hydrated is essential, do not replace water with sodas and other fizzy drinks as these drinks are sugar-loaded. Instead, go for natural juices, or water with dices of lemon or any other citrus fruits cut thinly to make it an excellent nutritious drink. Simple tips like replacing processed sugar by honey can also help you cut down on your sugar intake. For guests too, you can remove fizzy drinks and serve fresh fruits juices giving them a healthier and tastier alternative.

This way, you along with your guests will be able to enjoy food that comes with an eclectic blend of taste and nutrients.
