Take a look at these 17 delicious ideas of what to eat on the morning on your wedding

Even if you have put yourself on a strict wedding diet in the run up to your big day, the morning of the wedding is not a time to restrict your diet. A combination of nerves, excitement, stress and the odd glass of champagne will leave you feeling light headed if you haven’t fuelled up for your day.

It’s likely you will be waking up very early the morning on your wedding and you want to start the day with a mix of good fats, protein and carbohydrate the help keep you energized and alert throughout the day. Even if your stomach is doing somersaults, try your best to eat a decent breakfast and then a light snack later if your wedding breakfast is going to be late afternoon.
