Shedding For The Wedding was a reality television show that aired on The CW in 2011. The show was hosted by actress Sara Rue, and featured twelve engaged couples who competed in a weight-loss competition for the chance to win their dream wedding. Each episode of the show followed the couples as they participated in various fitness challenges and worked with a team of personal trainers and nutritionists to shed weight and improve their overall health. The contestants were split into teams, with each team representing a different season of the year, and each week one couple was eliminated based on their overall weight loss.

The show's competitors came from a variety of backgrounds and had different reasons for wanting to shed weight before their wedding day. Some were looking to improve their health, while others wanted to fit into their dream wedding dresses. One couple had even postponed their wedding twice due to the groom's struggles with obesity.

Throughout the competition, the couples faced a range of physical and emotional challenges. They trained together, cooked together, and supported each other through the ups and downs of weight loss. They also faced temptations, such as a wedding cake decorating challenge that tested their willpower, and a "date night" where they had to navigate a three-course meal at a fancy restaurant without binging on high-calorie foods.

As the competition went on, tensions rose between the contestants, as some couples felt that others were not taking the challenge seriously enough. One couple, in particular, was accused of sneaking in high-calorie foods and not putting in as much effort as the others.

Throughout it all, Sara Rue offered guidance and emotional support to the contestants, and even shared her own struggles with weight loss. She encouraged the couples to focus on their health and their relationships, rather than just winning the competition.

At the end of the competition, the two remaining couples were given a chance to plan their dream weddings with the help of wedding planners, designers, and stylists. They had the opportunity to choose everything from the venue and the flowers to the dress and the tuxedo.

In the final episode, the two couples were revealed and the winner was chosen based on their overall weight loss and wedding plans. The victorious couple received a dream honeymoon, while the other couple still got to have their dream wedding.

Overall, Shedding For The Wedding was an emotional and inspiring journey for the contestants and the viewers. It highlighted the importance of health and fitness, as well as the power of love and commitment. It also showcased the beauty and excitement of planning a dream wedding, and the joy that comes from seeing that day come to fruition.
