It makes sense really.
Weddings are packed from start to finish and there’s rarely a moment to sit back and take stock of all that’s going on around you.
Although the day is all about the bride and groom and celebrating their union, consummating that love isn’t always a priority on the wedding night. For 52 percent anyway.
Research conducted by Bluebella Lingerie surveyed 1,000 couples and found that 52 percent didn’t actually do the deed itself that night.
Tiredness and drunkenness were the main reasons for not having sex followed by wanting to get the “perfect moment”, having to travel to their honeymoon destination or partying with their nearest and dearest all night long.
You’re probably wondering WHEN they actually managed to get down to it and again, there are various answers.
A third of those surveyed made up for missing out the night before on the morning after while one in 10 waited a full 48 hours after the big day.
So although you might think that the bride and groom can’t wait to rip each other’s clothes off, the reality is it’s a lot more complicated.
