For bride’s convenience, we have piled up few important things which a bride must know before the wedding night. Read the article without any hindrance as it is both nerve-wracking and exciting to take care certain things for the first wedding night.
• It is not necessary to consummate your marriage on first night as it is natural to feel tired wearing 20 kgs of lehenga and sleepy after a long hectic day of having so many rituals and traditions prior to a wedding ceremony or at the day of the wedding.
• It might take one hour or more to change your bridal attire to comfortable wears. Taking off bridal jewellery, numbers of pins that were placed to keep your bridal lehenga, hairdo and other accessories at right place will require enough time
• Wear something you are comfortable in wearing. No need to wear fantasy lingeries or nighty if you are hesitating. Make yourself at ease first. Wear tops or capree whatever you like. Your partner will understand you.
• First wedding night is not always a romantic night. it is okay to talk about respective families and relatives on the wedding night and to cuddle before dozing off.
• Your partner will also feel exhausted after the wedding festivities, dancing and giving long hours of wedding pose with you.
• Now you are officially husband and wife. No need to get physical as you have rest of your life to do so. Just sink in the moment. Share your fears and overwhelming emotions either and snuggle up next to each other.
• The first thing which we fantasize wrong after watching Bollywood movies and reading books is how perfect their first wedding night is but that’s not the case in real life. There would be an embarrassing moment, clumsiness and giggles if something went wrong as dreamt.
• Even you are having a love marriage, you might be feeling awkward to get open in front of your partner and in arrange marriage, it might take a week before making out. Its okay to take time to feel comfortable in front of each other.
• Don’t feel bad and shy if you are feeling hungry. Share with your partner that you haven’t had anything. Probably, your partner would not have anything too. Arrange something to eat, it would be romantic as well.
• It’s natural you might not have considerable knowledge about the first wedding night. Ask your dear friends or cousins or siblings you are close to. Have a word with them. There knowledge and experience can vanish few doubts related to it.
• You and your respective partner both will be nervous and shy as it’s his first time as well. Make it special, not perfect. There is no mantra to make everything perfect instead just go with the flow. Get intimate and express your love to your beloved hubby.
• Well, congratulations, if you make out first night after the wedding ceremony. It would have its own charm. But consult your gynaecologist with your would-be spouse about birth contraceptive pills and precautions if you don’t want to have a baby right after the wedding.
• Keep your phone away. Its natural to check your phone for the drop out messages of your dear friends, colleagues, and well-wishers on social media and at WhatsApp. Your cousins might be calling you to ensure if you are comfortable and not crying. The night is about you and him. Keep all the distraction away and respond them the next day. They will definitely understand.
• If you were in a relationship with someone in the past than we advise you to not compare your partner with them as each individual has different traits and qualities. Bury your past in the past and don’t open the door by discussing your past with your better half. Your marriage is about two of you. Don’t involve any third person in your private space.
