You’ve had the wedding you always dreamed of, danced your heels off and finally you have some (much anticipated) alone time with your husband. Instead of a big passionate throw down with a broken bed, you spent over an hour in the bathroom “getting ready” when in fact you were just freaking out! The first time is tricky; you don’t know what to expect and as a virgin it’s even scarier than you falling head first into your wedding cake. Here are some tips to help you get over your wedding night jitters

 

1. You don’t actually HAVE to do it! 

Many couples are just too tired after all the wedding day exhaustion and prefer to sleep it off and consummate their marriage the next day or on their honey moon. Those who actually do it often say it wasn’t at all their best. 

2. Relax, breathe… 

 It can be scary and you will have a million thoughts running through your head. Shut the world out, take a hot bath and if you feel frisky then go for it! 

3. Add your own spice

 If you have any worries that it might not be as good as you imagined then no need to fret. Just slip on that sexy lingerie, get in the mood and get out there and make it everything you dreamed of! He will be surprised and pleased with your passionate initiation.

4. Performance Anxiety

Women also have some anxiety that they won’t be able to please their man. It’s common and nothing to worry about. Focus on the intimacy and that you will finally be one. It will help increase your emotional connection and improve the experience. 

5. Don’t over-think it

You’re about to get married! Enjoy every part of it; don’t stack up unnecessary rules or plans that will kill your mood. Let everything go and put one thing in mind, if you’re both happy then that’s all that matters!
