sounds like this time you'll actually be able to have fun, appreciate the love and joy that surrounds you for what it really is and take in the experience as a whole. Don't get caught without a FULL or mostly full non-alcoholic drink in hand or you'll find yourself being offered repeatedly. As for champagne toasts, just say it hurts your stomach and you'd rather not. Dance and have fun, as long as you are embracing what the wedding really symbolizes for your friends as a couple and don't mope around because you're not getting sauced like everyone else, people won't really notice that you're not drinking, and you won't make the same mistakes you did in the past. You can do it, Have fun
