Moreover, it’s a pleasant end to a difficult wedding day. Young people want to make it memorable, and to do so, they need to know how the wedding night unfolds. In this article, we’ll share some of the traditions of different cultures regarding the place and time of sex on the wedding night.
Wedding Night Sex Traditions
It is no secret that every nation has its own special customs that must be followed in order to honor the ancestors who founded these traditions.
For example, in Islam, a girl is expected to remain a virgin until marriage. In some Muslim countries, the wedding night still ends with the display of a white sheet with drops of the girl’s blood. Failure to display this blood can lead to serious conflict between the two families, and the girl’s family will be condemned to a life of shame.
In ancient Rus’, newlyweds were forbidden from drinking alcohol during the wedding ceremony and throughout the day. Their first sexual encounters took place in a separate room, to which guests were required to lead the newlyweds.
Pagan Rus’ were tolerant of young women who remained unfaithful until marriage. Virginity was desirable, but not elevated to a cult.
Buddhists believe that sex on the wedding night should be adorned with fresh flowers. Such an atmosphere was believed to have a positive effect on the couple’s mood and lay the foundation for a happy family life.
Today, all of these traditions have been significantly modified, and in our countries it is generally accepted to live together for several years before an official wedding to determine whether a man and woman are compatible with each other.
HOW TO PREPARE FOR YOUR WEDDING NIGHT
Every newlywed probably dreams of having sex for the first time in their marriage from the very first day they met, and so they prepare for it with the utmost care. To ensure you don’t forget anything, we’d like to highlight the key points to consider when preparing for your first legally accepted sexual encounter:
- Decide on a location for sex. Ideally, it’ll be a luxury hotel where you can relax after the wedding rush. If you mention when booking that you’re newlyweds, the hotel staff will decorate the room and might even surprise you with a discount or extra services.
- Buy massage oil, aromatherapy foam, and other sex accessories in advance.
- Alcoholic drinks and snacks can be ordered directly at the hotel. However, it’s advisable to arrange this in advance.
If you can’t book a hotel room, you can spend your wedding night in your own home. The main thing is to create a romantic atmosphere yourself.
