Juicy wedding night questions you’re too scared to ask
Oh, hello, lover! Let’s be honest – everyone’s curious about what really goes down after the wedding cake’s been cut, the dancefloor’s cleared, and the sparklers have fizzled out. We asked the questions you’ve been too shy to voice, and the results are in from our Easy Weddings Polls.
Did You Get Intimate on Your Wedding Night?
- 65% said no (gasp!)
- 35% said yes (cheers for them!)
Turns out, the wedding night fantasy isn’t always as steamy as you’d imagine. Here’s what some couples confessed:
- “We were mentally and physically drained by the end of the wedding, so we did the next morning.”
- “We were too tired and wanted to spend time reminiscing about the day instead.”
- “Yes… next morning. We needed sleep first!”
- ” We decided to have a bath, a last drink, go through our three favourite moments of the day, and then went to sleep.”
- “People left our room at 5 am, and we were knackered!”
Looks like real-life romance is more about recovery than a romantic romp for many!
Did You Buy Any Special Lingerie for Your Wedding Night?
- 48% said no (because, let’s be real, it’s a long day).
- 52% said yes (for those holding onto the dream!).
What’s in the Wedding Night Survival Kit?
You’ve seen the Pinterest boards—the bridal boudoir sets, luxury candles, and silk robes ready to set the scene for a perfect wedding night. But let’s be real: After a day packed with emotional vows, photo ops, and endless dancing, what really gets used in the actual wedding night survival kit?
The Fantasy Kit vs. Reality
- Fantasy Kit: Silk lingerie, rose petals, scented candles, and a bottle of champagne chilling in a fancy ice bucket.
- Reality Check Kit: Face wipes, comfy pyjamas, a bag of crisps, and that stash of emergency paracetamol.
Here’s what some couples said about what really made the cut:
- “We bought a Polaroid camera to take some sexy snaps — I’m so glad we did!”
- “I bought some gorgeous lingerie, but honestly, I reached straight for my old dressing gown.”
- “We didn’t even get to open the champagne; we ordered burgers and fell asleep halfway through eating them.”
- “Makeup wipes and lip balm saved my life.”
- “We prepped a playlist, but in the end, we just watched Netflix until we fell asleep.”
Pro Tip: Snacks Are Key
Snacks deserve their own spotlight in the survival kit. Whether it’s a stash of chocolates, crisps, or leftover wedding cake, you’ll thank yourself later when the post-party munchies hit. The champagne can wait – right now, it’s all about the carbs.
So, What’s the Real MVP of the Wedding Night Kit?
Comfy PJ sets, face wipes, snacks, and anything that helps you unwind (hello, slippers!) are the unsung heroes. The truth is, after a marathon wedding day, self-care and relaxation might just be the most romantic thing you can do.
At the end of the day (literally), your wedding night isn’t about ticking off some romantic checklist. Whether you’re wrapped in silk or snuggled in your favourite old hoodie, the night is what you make of it – exhaustion, snacks, Netflix, and all. After all the planning, stress, and joy, the best survival kit is one that’s true to who you are as a couple – even if that means prioritising comfy PJs and a good night’s sleep.
