Even today, the wedding night is still very important for many newlyweds. The first night together as a married couple should above all be romantic. Romantic like the exchange of wedding rings and the ceremony itself. In earlier times, however, the wedding night had a much more far-reaching tradition: husband and wife entered the marriage as virgins and it was only on the wedding night that they had their first physical contact. The next morning, proof had to be provided that the bride really had entered the marriage as a virgin. This proof was not only very important for the groom's family, but also for the bride's family. If the woman did not enter the marriage untouched, this would bring shame on the whole family. In the past, the wedding night was not a romantic, intimate affair, but much more a proof of virginity.
This aspect no longer has any significance for most couples nowadays. Instead, the wedding night is the crowning glory of a wonderful wedding celebration and the first night as husband and wife. For this reason, many couples spend their wedding night in a romantically decorated hotel room so that they can enjoy their first night together as a married couple to the full. The modern wedding night is hardly comparable to the traditional wedding night.
The wedding night as the crowning glory of your unforgettable wedding
Planning a wedding and the wedding day itself can take a lot of energy. To bring this unforgettable day to a romantic close, couples look forward to a very special wedding night where they can forget all the stress of the past weeks and months. But for many newlyweds, the reality is somewhat different. They fall into bed exhausted after the wedding and look forward to a few hours of rest. After dancing the night away, there is a great desire to get rid of the uncomfortable shoes and recover from the exertions of the exciting day. But this is no reason to feel bad. There are various ways in which you can spend a perfect wedding night despite being exhausted. But don't force anything. If you and your spouse simply want to enjoy some peace and quiet together after all the wonderful hustle and bustle, simply postpone the romance until the next day. That way you can fully enjoy your time together and revel in the wonderful memories of your wedding day.
How to make your wedding night unforgettable
Did you know that for many married couples, the wedding night actually falls through? After the wedding marathon is over, you are completely exhausted and just want to sleep and forget the stress of the past time. To prevent this from happening to you, here are a few tips and tricks. As an ambitious bride and groom, you should not party until dawn. Leave your party when it's at its best, either secretly or officially. This will give you enough time to enjoy your wedding night to the full. Treat yourself to a hotel room for your first night together as a married couple. Reflect on the day in intimate togetherness and let the sight of your wedding rings the most beautiful moments once again. A romantic ambience, a freshly made, comfortable bed and room service will ensure that your wedding night is unforgettable. What's more, in a hotel you are safe from any wedding pranks and don't have to deal with any nasty jokes. Even if the pranks are meant to be funny, they can quickly spoil the romantic atmosphere and ruin the wedding night. Also make sure you don't drink too much alcohol at the wedding reception so that you can continue celebrating as a couple that night. If you already have children, you should organize reliable childcare for the night of your wedding in advance. If you keep these points in mind, nothing will stand in the way of an unforgettable wedding night. With candlelight and a glass of champagne, you can enjoy your first night as a married couple to the full.
