Like true love, this health journey is meant to last a lifetime.

Hello, my name is Danielle! I started the Upstate Wedding Dietitian after feeling the pressures firsthand being a bride-to-be. From the moment I became engaged I started seeing targeted ads for weight loss, diets, and workouts  targeting people (myself) getting married. 

I am generally a confident person. I also have a master's degree in nutrition. Therefore I understand very well that dieting does not work. However, I found myself questioning my worth during this vulnerable time. Thoughts started circulating like... “do I need to lose a little weight before the big day?”. 

When I started asking other people about their pre-wedding experiences, the result was horrifying. Almost every single person I spoke with said that they at least attempted to “diet” or lose a significant amount of weight before their wedding. Some straight up starved, others took diet pills, some worked-out to death.. All for what?

I started this business to help guide brides through a diet-culture free engagement. To help them build confidence, gain nutrition knowledge, and truly become HEALTHIER mentally and physically. I created programs for well beyond a wedding, but for a healthier MARRIAGE and LIFE.

With all of the misinformation out there, I’m here to simplify it all as well as call out the B.S. So welcome to the Upstate Wedding Dietitian, where better nutrition  starts here. And like true love, this health journey lasts a lifetime.
