Alcohol

Rum and diet. Or if you want to be healthy, Bloody Mary. :drinker:

Spirits are always the best calorie wise, I normally go for Vodka and diet coke :drinker:

Just to offer a fun alternative. 1. Its a wedding!!! I love weddings. 2. They are heaps of fun. 3.Live it up for the night!! 4. Train harder for the rest of the week.

yeah stuff with diet soda mixers, or just have one or two glasses of wine and don't worry about it.

Have red wine. It's heart healthy. and my favorite!:drinker:

Vodka and club soda is the absolute best for those watching their weight. The second best would be vodka and diet tonic, but most places don't have diet tonic. You are going to be getting excess sugars in any other type of mixer (fruit juice, tonic, etc) and unneccessary sweeteners in any diet beverage (i think diet beverages are a joke - a personal belief). I usually will do either white wine (lower in calories and sugar than red) or a good quality vodka on the rocks with lemon slices. The vodka rocks is strong since it is straight vodka but it makes you sip it, it lasts longer and you don't feel awful the next day from all the sugar in your body combined with a hangover. Anything straight on the rocks will be better for you than a mixer.

Have fun!!!

Put some chrystal light to-go packets in your purse or clutch.. order a vodka & water, mix in half a packet .. stir .. drink .. be merry

^^^^

yay! someone else does it to!
I use a whole crystal light pack, vodka, and half a sprite and its awesome. Go for the rasberry.

Me too! And 2 6oz glasses for 300 calories

I have a wedding coming up to go to & I want to have a few drinks - any low calorie or lower calorie suggestions?
Help ya'all....

Thanks! :drinker:

This is one of those unusual situations. Just drink responsibly and have a good time. It is an exception and not the rule. I would not worry about calories in a special circumstance. Personally, I am not a drinker. But if I were, I would just keep the quantities down and not worry so much about the caloric intake at a special event such as this. Just don't make it a habit.

^^^this.. the cran-apple packets are so good wih vodka and water

As an occasional bartender I've discovered that clear liquors are better than say Whiskey, So-Co, Tequila, etc. Juices at bars and reception halls will be regular juices containing sugar so avoid that (for example: Vodka & Cranberry). Tonic water has sugar too so be aware of Gin or Vodka & Tonics. If you know the reception staff well enough, see about them stocking specifically Ocean Spray "Diet" cranberry or other juices and mix with Vodka. There are only 5 calories and maybe 2 carbs(includes sugars) because it's made with Splenda. But otherwise my suggestions are these and Diet Lemon/Lime soda with a flavored vodka or a Vanilla Vodka & Diet Coke. Hope this helps. CONGRATS & enjoy! Cheers!!

str8 shots or diet drinks mixed in.. i just take shots & drink water to stay hydrated

I went with Chardonnay (4oz> 100 calories depending on the brand) or Malibu Rum & diet coke (57 calories) at a recent wedding I attended.

I'm a huge fan of vodka and plain water with a squeeze of fresh lime! Yummy and helps with hangovers too

But I agree with the posters saying let loose! It's a one off and it's good to kick back, take your calorie counting hat off and enjoy.

You can't control what food you'll be served at a wedding and you can't say no to wedding cake!

Have fun and relax the logging for one day :flowerforyou:

Vodka, soda-water and lime is my go-to!
