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!!0

Vodka soda water with 3 or 4 lime wedges in a pint glass (more soda water that way). Or tequila shots and pints of water, 1 for 1.0

I went with Chardonnay (4oz> 100 calories depending on the brand) or Malibu Rum & diet coke (57 calories) at a recent wedding I attended.0

I still prefer light beer if I'm going to drink. Again, it's a fun even and so you should enjoy. It's not like drinking a huge mixer with all kinds of sugars. Just have a good time. Drink lots of water the next day and exercise you will be fine!0

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:0 -
