Dress and Clothing

• Perhaps you have some unwanted flab you want to shed before the big day. After all, you should fit comfortably into your wedding clothes, be it a dress, tuxedo or suit. A personal trainer can work with you to outline a specific exercise plan, and sometimes a dietary plan, that can help you achieve this goal. Meet with the trainer regularly to discuss any amendments you may need to make to the program. You may get bored doing the same exercise routines or eating the same food every day and wish to change it up. Your trainer can help you come up with alternative methods that can still help you meet your goals.
  
  

Dancing

• You will be doing a lot of dancing at your wedding. The bride and groom traditionally share their first dance as a married couple, and then with their respective father and mother. In addition, other family members, friends, or members of the wedding party may wish to dance with you. You should be gracious enough to oblige them all. A personal trainer can help you set up a cardiovascular workout regimen that will help improve your stamina and sustain you through all the foot work you will have to do on the big day. Such a routine could involve running in place, workout videos or treadmill exercises. Your trainer will probably be able to help you select the proper diet to correspond with this type of fitness routine. Again, this regimen should alternate from time to time to keep you from getting bored.
  
  

Pictures

• Yet another incentive to lose unwanted pounds and look trim and fit is that you will be posing for quite a few pictures that day. Since these are pictures of a special day and you will look at them for years to come, you will want to look your best. No woman wants her dress to look too tight and no man wants a pot belly that will stand out in the picture. Again, work closely with your trainer to develop a fitness and weight loss program that won't make you embarrassed to look at your wedding photos.
  
  

Honeymoon

• A honeymoon is usually thought of as a romantic and relaxing vacation where the bride and groom do little more than enjoy each other's company and bask in the glow of their newlywed status. However, if you honeymoon on a beach, this will require wearing a bathing suit or swim trunks. Perhaps the bride will want to fit into that treasured bikini that she hasn't worn in a few years; the groom may wish to put on trunks without looking like someone who hasn't exercised since he was in high school. With a personal trainer in the weeks and months leading up to the wedding, you can do your best to ensure that you look healthy and happy when relaxing on the beach. If your honeymoon involves a camping or nature trip with any kind of hiking, a trainer can help you strengthen your endurance and leg muscles so that you don't tire easily.
