The last part of this day in white
After a day of emotions and fatigue, orient yourself to spend your wedding night in a hotel near the reception venue, and why not at the hotel where you celebrate your wedding. Be demanding. This is your day. Pamper yourself. Request a beautiful room decor, roses on your bed, chocolates with heart shapes with your initials … Prepare yourself physically before the day that your first night is completely successful as you wish. Keep your sex appeal to those unique moments that made you dream since childhood. Plan ahead a relaxing program. During the reception avoid making all guests fill your glass. Take a sip to never leave your glass empty.
Once in the bridal chamber
Moment of big intimacy. Your expectations are certainly great and your emotions even greater. Your mind is scrambled and you live in a whole new world and somewhat strange. The wedding night meant the loss of virginity … Less nowadays. To avoid disappointment, discuss with your partner to limit your expectations regarding this so awaited night and avoid unexpected facts that would transform the wedding night in a night like any other. This is the time to evacuate the stress of recent months, the last weeks or the last hours. You are both exhausted and you prefer probably to rest in the arms of Morpheus instead of those of the partner.
If you’re really tired, do not hesitate to give in to a nap to regain your strength. You will experience the magic of nuptials in the morning. You will find it even more magical.
Remember these tips
- Do not abuse of alcohol, its effect decreases the libido, it also reduces erectile abilities.
- Discuss and comment on that wonderful day with your man. A few minutes of tenderness often are better than bad sexual intercourse. Communication and transparency are essential during those intimate moments. Tell him without restraint what excites you, you form now one person. No place for modesty.
- For your first night, opt for comfort, do not hold back if you want to stay in underwear or even naked. Leave aside your reservations and treat yourself to your spouse, he expects that of you, see you in the uniform of Eve to devour you. Be yourself, that’s what he loves in you.

Getting to know the other sex
It is undeniable that women and men are not alike. However, the curiosity to know the opposite sex is a big part of our unconscious.
- The female sex organs are much more complex than those of men. These have only one sexual organ, penis, women have two, vagina and clitoris.
- Did you know that men’s breast are as sensitive as those of women? But man tends to hide this sensitivity, pride oblige. But the male breasts do not take the volume of women during sexual arousal.
- If man marks his excitement by the erection of his penis that is visible, the woman also has erectile organs but internal.
- Man produces daily large amounts of sperm, while the woman starts her sex life with egg stock already established at puberty and generally emits a single menstrual cycle by about one lunar month and up to menopause.
