Six weeks out you will be on regular foods. Until then follow your instructions very carefully. Buy yourelf a foam wedge and sleep on it on your back after surgery, it really helps. You can get them at doctor supply stores/places that sell medical supplies. Plan to spend time recuperating, but six weeks later you should be well into your new life! Good luck!

By six weeks out you should hardly even know you had surgery! I had my first fill at four weeks but I could still eat pretty much anything I wanted (and as much of it as I wanted) at six weeks. You should be fine for the wedding! Grats on your surgery and good luck.
