If you’re on the crazy rollercoaster of wedding planning, juggling florals, seating charts, and the endless quest for the perfect dress, you’re not alone. Planning a wedding can be intense, and for some, it can be stressful. So, it’s important to find time for your mental wellness and fitness to decompress and rejuvenate. Let’s push the pause button and talk about something that has nothing to do with colour schemes or cake tiers – let’s talk about getting fit for the big day together with wedding workouts.
Now, we’re not here to push unrealistic fitness goals or make you count every calorie. Instead, think of this as your friendly guide to wedding workouts that are more about fun, connection, and a shared sweat session than anything else. After all, a couple that sweats together stays together, right?
So lace up those sneakers, grab your partner, and let’s embark on a fitness journey that’s as exciting as planning the wedding itself!
1. Dance party extravaganza
Turn your living room into a dance floor! Create a playlist of your favourite tunes, throw in some classic wedding hits, and dance like no one’s watching. Not only is it an awesome wedding workout, but it’s also a fantastic stress-buster. Plus, who can resist a spontaneous dance-off with their significant other?
2. Park picnic & play
Combine the outdoors, some healthy snacks, and a bit of fun and games and head to a nearby park for a picnic. Bring along frisbees, a badminton set, or just go for a run. It’s a low-key way to get active and soak in some Vitamin D.
3. Bike and bite adventure
Explore your neighbourhood on two wheels! Plan a leisurely bike ride, discover new spots, and maybe stop for a healthy bite along the way. It’s a fantastic way to sneak in some exercise while enjoying each other’s company and the scenery.
4. Yoga twists and laughter
No need to be a yoga expert – just grab a mat and embrace the giggles. Find a beginner-friendly yoga routine online and tackle it together. Don’t take yourselves too seriously – falling out of poses and sharing a laugh are all part of the experience.
5. Team sports spectacular
Pick a sport you both enjoy or one you’ve never tried before. Whether it’s a friendly game of pickleball, a tennis match, or even a game of beach volleyball, teaming up against each other adds a playful twist to your wedding workout routine.
6. Rollerblading romance
Strap on some rollerblades and hit a nearby trail or skate park. Not only is rollerblading an excellent workout for your legs, but it’s also a nostalgic throwback to the ’90s. Hold hands, glide together, and enjoy the wind in your hair.
7. DIY obstacle course
Get creative at home! Set up a mini obstacle course using household items – crawl under tables, hop over cushions, and maybe throw in a dance move or two. It’s a hilarious way to break a sweat and unleash your inner child.
8. Karaoke cardio
Transform your living room into a stage! Pick your favourite tunes, grab a makeshift microphone (hair brushes work wonders), and dance around while belting out your favourite hits. It’s a wedding workout for your body and a karaoke party for your soul.
9. Beach body challenge
If you’re lucky enough to live near the coast, hit the beach for wedding workouts with a view. Jog along the shoreline, try beach volleyball, or challenge each other to a sandcastle-building competition.
10. Rock climbing adventure
Step out of your comfort zone and try indoor rock climbing. It’s a fantastic full-body wedding workout that also requires trust and communication. Cheer each other on as you climb to new heights – both figuratively and literally.
11. DIY mini-golf madness
Create a mini-golf course at home using household items. Each of you can design a few holes and then take turns navigating the course. It’s a playful way to incorporate some friendly competition into your workout routine.
12. Couples’ trampoline time
Embrace your inner child with a trampoline workout. Bouncing on a trampoline is not only a great cardiovascular exercise but also tons of fun. Just be prepared for some laughter-induced abs soreness the next day.
13. Adventure time hike
Explore nature together with a scenic hike. Choose a trail that suits your fitness levels and embark on an adventure. Hiking not only provides an excellent workout but also allows for quality time away from screens and wedding checklists.
