The best way to beat a wedding hangover is to not drink. If that's not an option though, the second best way to beat a wedding hangover is to hook yourself up to an IV eight hours before the wedding starts.

That's what Golden Tate did for Matthew Stafford's wedding on Saturday.   

Based on Tate's tweet, I'm guessing he either had a rough Friday night and needed the "clutch" IV to get him through Saturday -- or maybe he just wanted to be the most hydrated person at Stafford's wedding on Saturday night. 

Anyway, I have to say, this is kind of genius.

I've been to plenty of weddings and not once did I hook myself up to an IV beforehand, a mistake I won't make again. As a matter of fact, from now on, I'm not going to go to any wedding unless the event includes IVs for every guest. 

Glad we could provide some hydration to the party-goers of #fullystaffed4415! Congrats to the soon-to-be Staffords! #letitFLO
