Consummation on Wedding Night

Contributor: Vaccinium Vaccinium
We consumated on our wedding night, but I had to insist upon it. She had a migraine because of the pressures of the day, but after having her withhold sex for me for weeks so that we could "really enjoy" our wedding night, I was in no mood to be turned down. It was lousy sex, not surprisingly, and looking back on it, I'm not overly proud of myself for pushing the issue.

We did not consummate on our wedding night. We didn't get to leave the reception until almost 1 in the morning, then got dragged out to Denny's for a quick bite, and didn't make it back to the hotel til almost 3. So we just passed out. But neither of us were really worried about it. We've consummated before and we were on our way to our honeymoon, where we consummated some more

Didn't consumate on wedding night of first marriage....ended in divorce.
Consumated on weddingn night of real marriage......still going strong.

Correlation does not imply causation.
Always a good thing to keep in mind. Causation requires a lot more proof, but there are plenty of people who are willing to snow-job-up a mere correlation.

Pretty much this. We were both basically like; "We'll I guess we should do this because it what you're suppose to do." LOL

We saved the really hot sex for the Honeymoon.

We did and it was very enjoyable. Yes, we were both tired after our wedding & reception but we had been looking forward to it for some time. That was the first night we went without a condom and we were both excited to see what it felt like without one.

We didn't wait until the wedding night, but we did have sex on our wedding night. Well, day. We got married in the afternoon and headed to the hotel, had sex, took a nap for a few hours, went to get food and then stayed up all night having sex. It's definitely tiring to deal with all the wedding stuff and I don't think it matters if you wind up sleeping it off or having sex.

I think I posted here already. We certainly didn't "wait" for the wedding night. We'd been having sex for close to 7 years, had bought a house together, were living in it...and I was pregnant!

We finally got our friends, who followed us home after the reception to leave and basically forced ourselves to have a quickie. My Man said, "It is our wedding night." We were really tired, but I think we needed to set a precedence "Yes, we can have sex when we are 'really tired' if it's important enough."

The next morning we got up early (I think we made love again, but it's been a long time and I have forgotten) and then drove to a tiny Bed & Breakfast for a few days of love and one sad attempt at cross country skiing. (Did I mention I was pregnant? Did I also mention it was the middle of January in the Midwest?) Then one night in a hotel with a nice pool and a hot tub I couldn't use. It was a short, but very sweet honeymoon. I didn't realize until later that we have no pictures of the honeymoon.

Yesterday was our anniversary it was a similar situation. Long day, really tired, basically, he got me off (probably shouldn't have as I have a UTI) and conked out. I'm hoping to make up for it this weekend.

We're actually getting married next summer (May), but we've been sexually active together almost since the beginning. I don't see why we should try to have sex on our wedding night if we're exhausted from the day's festivities. Maybe sneak off for a quickie during the reception, but I'm sure by the time we get to our bedroom that night, we'll just want to sleep.

My boyfriend and I are looking to get married next november. we've been together for years, so obviously have already had sex. but i'm sure we will on our wedding night, simply because we do on most nights.

I've always thought that doing something just because it was traditional was kind of stupid. In this scenario, if I'm tired and stressed (which I hope not to be, since I don't want a big ceremony), it's just not going to happen.

If and when I find a man I want to marry, I intend to have plenty of sex with him beforehand. As my grandmother once said to my mother on the subject, "You have to take a test drive before you buy the car."

In both of my marriages I had sex on my wedding night. But, I didn't wait until I was married to have sex, so it wasn't like it was the first time. It wasn't a big deal either way, but it was done.

We did not consummate our marriage on the wedding night, in fact it took 8 YEARS to finally do the deed.....long story, but the marriage ended badly.
As I recall, we were both very tired, she got sick from food and we were BOTH VIRGINS !

In fact, my second marriage started out similarity, my lovely new wife got sick before we could get to our honeymoon destination. We spent several hours in a hospital emergency room that night.
We finally landed at the place we booked the second night, and everything went swimmingly, we cuddled and nuzzled and ravished each other all night, MUCH BETTER.

Oh, and we did have sex before the wedding, so no virgins on that day, thankfully. I would not want to go through that again.
