Lingerie 101

Explore the Art of Wedding Night Seduction

wedding lingerie
Most brides know that your garter doesn't complete your wedding lingerie. When we think of our wedding night, we think passion, romance, candles, and of course, being irresistible! It's a great time in our lives, the night of our wedding, and we want to be graceful and vibrant for our husbands.

So, where do we start? Does he like lace or satin? Black or white? Bows or no bows? The choices can be maddening! But not to worry -- no matter your body type, a delicious piece is out there to steal his heart for a second time on your special day.

Choosing the Right Outfit
When choosing your wedding night wear, it can be as simple as a fancy, elegant pair of panties, or as extravagant as a fully layered outfit for his pleasure, including a robe, corset, garter belt, and boa! Whatever your personal style, make sure you feel beautiful in it. That sort of radiance comes from within when we feel good about ourselves, and it shows!

Full-Figured Goddesses
For the full-figured woman, a corset can really be appealing. Enhancing your best assets is the whole point, and a corset with a soft robe and some pretty heels is a wonderful choice! Another option is to get a lacey, beaded bra that fits you perfectly with matching panties. Decorative bras can make us feel like queens when worn right, and your new husband will be convinced of your prowess, as well!

Petite Princesses
For the petite woman, enhancing hips and legs should be the focus. Give the impression of longer legs and bigger hips with a one-piece corset bodysuit, worn with matching high heels. Avoid large garters, as they can shorten the appearance of the leg. Don't be afraid to throw some padding in there if it helps the corset to fit better. Again, it's all about how we feel in these special garments.

The Mature Bride
If you're not quite comfortable in tight corsets and gilded bras, take a look at options like stretchy lace and satin slips. Stretchy lace can be quite appealing in the right cut for your body, matching your beloved curves. Satin slips are soft and sensual, leaving something to his imagination. The feel of these softer fabrics may also make you feel sexier, helping to ignite your mutual passion!

How To Wear It
Some brides wear their lingerie underneath their wedding gown or reception outfit. If this works and has no chance of being revealed too early, go for it! The simpler you can make your magic night, the better.

If you're looking at a more provocative piece, opt for a quick change when you get to your final resting place for the night. Your new husband probably won't mind doing you a favor of going out for some ice, champagne, fruit, or any other item designed enhance the evening.

The Reveal
Whether you have been intimate before or not, the way you look on your special day will most likely top all other looks. You're rosy, glowing, and full of adoration for your new husband, and it shows.

The Classic Blindfold
Cover his eyes. Don't let him see it all at once. Though men are very visual, playing with their senses (softness, smells, kisses) can really heighten your reveal. When the time is right, don't be afraid to remove the blindfold with your teeth!

Out on an Errand
If you've sent him out to get something while you change, be bold. Change the feel of the room with some simple candles, dimmed lights, a cozy spot, and a seductive pose. Get rid of any bags and extras in the way. The room should look as though its the place for you two to consummate your marriage.

Too Much Passion To Wait!
If you get carried away by passion and have your lingerie on underneath your outerwear, don't stop to make a dramatic reveal unless it feels right. Though this is a once-in-a-lifetime night, it still should be fluid and smooth. Even if you've spent an insane amount of money on your lingerie, don't make a fuss out of the reveal if it's not perfect timing. Let the passion take over! In the face of such burning desire, even the most beautiful piece of lingerie is nothing but a flimsy afterthought.
