If you live in Delhi and train regularly, you already know the problem: wedding season isn't one event, it's a stretch of months where you might have two or three heavy, multi-course meals a week — each one designed around abundance, not moderation. Skipping every wedding isn't realistic, and honestly, it shouldn't have to be. The goal isn't to avoid the food, it's to stop every wedding meal from becoming a full day (or week) of undoing your training.
The single most useful habit is not arriving hungry. Wedding meals in North India are typically served late, buffet-style, with dessert stations and multiple curries competing for plate space. If you show up having skipped lunch to "save calories" for the event, you'll almost always overeat — your hunger signals stop being useful past a certain point, and buffet-style serving makes portion control genuinely difficult even when you're paying attention. A normal-sized meal earlier in the day keeps you eating at the wedding because you want to, not because you're starving.
