Adjusting Our Expectations Regarding Sexual Experience on Our Wedding Night

Wedding night expectations have been influenced by mainstream pop culture, leading couples to believe that they should experience earth-shattering pleasure. However, according to Shavon Gaddy-Dalrymple, a New York City psychotherapist specializing in couples, many couples fail to plan for their wedding night sex yet have the highest expectation for its success.

To improve their chances, Ms. Gaddy-Dalrymple recommends couples to designate a trusted friend to be their wedding night planner. The planner can set up the room where the couple will retreat after the wedding and help them leave the reception early and sober to avoid exhaustion.

Even couples who were already sexually active before their wedding should plan for the night. Graduate students Ofelia Saba Ramírez and Jessica Saba Ramírez were strategic in how they wanted their night to go, limiting their alcohol and staying hydrated. While their sex may have been memorable but not exactly energetic, they felt proud of themselves for making it a priority to continue their strong sexual connection.

In contrast, when Mr. Sethi and his wife got married, their wedding night was spent with his wife’s mother helping her out of her wedding dress while Mr. Sethi had fallen fast asleep. Despite this, the couple consummated their marriage the next day, admitting they were “more morning sex people.”

No matter how many opportunities a couple has, they may still not be able to have sex on their wedding night. However, proper planning can increase the likelihood of success and help couples prioritize their sexual connection.
