What are wedding night expectations?

This entry describes wedding-night expectations as the often unspoken ideas each person brings about sex, privacy, relatives still nearby, and what the night is supposed to prove. It notes that fatigue, guests, and pressure are common, and that a marriage is not void if the night does not match the picture.

What this entry does not do
