Top 8 Wedding Night Tips

There is a lot of speculation and hype surrounding the infamous wedding night. While most people think it’s primarily about the consummation of the marriage, others resonate with it being the first milestone of intimacy for their marriage. Either way, it’s still an important night and everything has to go according to the plan regardless of which way you’re leaning. Now, typically after the wedding party, it’s expected that the couple will be physically drained and in need of rest and maybe lots of fluids. Hence, doing nothing but getting some rest with your partner beside you can also be a rejuvenating wedding night experience if you let it. However, even with this option, you’ll still need the following wedding night tips.

Book a suite

Most couples want their wedding night to be memorable, something they can look back on when they’re old and crinkly and still smile about. Thus, whatever you need to do, do it. Book a suite months ahead so you get the best rooms, get all your partner’s favorite things, and brace yourself for the first night as Mr and Mrs.

Set the scene

Most people love to surprise their significant other on their wedding night hence they serenade their room with rose petals, champagne, caviar, the works. This is very romantic but it does need early planning as nothing can be last minute. Hence, regardless of how tired you may be after the wedding party, do make prior arrangements for the suite to be as comfortable and as romantic as you’d like.

Be open-minded

As previously mentioned, newlyweds may be too exhausted to consummate their marriage on the night of their wedding but this doesn’t mean they still can’t have a great time. Once the party’s over and you’ve showered and done your night rituals (skincare and what have you), you and your partner can cuddle up, maybe watch a movie and sleep in each other’s arms. That’s what marriage is all about, isn’t it? In essence, keep an open mind.

Wear something special

This is your first night as a legally married couple, no pressure but you should mark it with a special night piece. Most couples who are up for it go for lingerie or robes just to add pizzazz to the scene. You can do the same. There are lots of options in the clothing department, go for something you’re comfortable in and what you know your partner would like.

Put on a show

If you’re going with tip number 4, you might as well put on a show while you’re at it. Put on those sexy underpants and dance for your partner. You don’t have to know how to dance either, just do something to lighten the mood, show your goofy selves, get your partner to dance with you, and make each other laugh.

Be creative

Intimacy isn’t just about sex, there are lots of ways you can be intimate with your partner without having sex with them and this can even heighten their love for you if that’s possible. Anything from drawing them a bath, giving them a foot massage, a back rub, or even painting their toenails. Get creative.

Enjoy each other’s company

The journey to forever begins with the wedding night and since this is whom you love, you should also love being in his/her company. You’re with your favorite person and while you may have post-wedding jitters, just relax, put your feet up, wrap his arms around you and revel in the calmness of his heartbeat. You can play with his beards or facial features while you’re giving him wife kisses.

Be sure to get some rest

Let’s face it, you’ve both had a long and very eventful day and tomorrow commences the honeymoon. You’ll need to be fully rested for the events of tomorrow or the first day as a married couple, whichever comes first. Hence, when what was planned for the wedding night plays out, you’ll both need your beauty sleep. You can sleep for as long as you want and awaken with that newlyweds glow.

Wedding nights can be filled with a lot of uncertainty if it’s not handled well and this is why everyone needs these tips. As much as the element of surprise is welcome, aspects like booking status or location shouldn’t be hidden from your partner. In essence, talk about it with the other person to avoid having different rooms booked by each person. As they say, proper planning prevents poor performance. Henceforth and regardless of which scenario you’re leaning towards, plan for your big night, and don’t forget to let creativity and romance be the leading factors on that special night and during your marriage.
