My sister`s husband has this same problem. At their wedding, they did a regular buffet style dinner for their guests and had a selection of foods he can eat waiting for him in the kitchen (which was brought out when the guests started getting their plates filled).

The wedding cake was a regular wedding cake, they had a couple other desserts on the table for those that didnt` want wedding cake. They cut the cake and he had a small bite when they fed each other for the pictures but that was all he ate of it, he put is piece aside and ate strawberries while the guests enjoyed the wedding cake or other dessert offers.

Does that help? There really is nothing wrong with his not eating what the others are eating. I mean the people at your wedding are your loved ones and friends, they would probably be very understanding of the problem if anyone were to actually mention anything.
