First Kiss...

So most of my readers already know that I am planning on saving my first kiss for my wedding day... How about you?? Are you planning on waiting?

I stumbled across an article yesterday about this very subject. (Click Here to read) The writer heard that a guy was planning on saving his first kiss for his wedding day, but to her that was pretty much a foreign idea... Reading the comments below the post was intriguing to me, for I have never really heard the world's point of view on this topic. I have heard some people say that they wouldn't want there first kiss to be in front of a bunch of people... I have heard people say they couldn't wait that long... At first the writer thought the idea was romantic, but quickly changed her mind as she proceeded to think about it. Most of the other commenters agreed that it was a stupid idea to wait until you were married; however, there was one that tried to explain the idea a little better while relating it to courtship. Although this commenter didn't follow this idea herself, she had a bit understanding.

I personally wouldn't mind if the entire world watched my first kiss with my husband on my wedding day. (who knows... Maybe that is how I will land a spot on "Say Yes to the Dress" or "Four Weddings"!) But even if it is just a private party the meaning of a first kiss wedding is an important one (for me anyway)...

The proof of your love and devotion for each other is shown in your willingness to wait. You are honoring your spouse to be in other ways too. If you save your first kiss, that means you didn't use it up on someone else! Saving your body for your husband will give everything you do with him a special excitement, you get to learn together, and you would never have to worry about comparing him to someone else, or him comparing you.

What are your thoughts? What are the pros and cons of waiting until your wedding day? Do you think it would be awful? Are you too shy to do it in front of an audience? Why or why not? Do you have regrets from times when you have given something away to a man you didn't end up marrying? I would love to hear your thoughts and experiences!

  1. I'm definitely planning to wait, but having said that, I DO NOT want anyone else to see the first time I kiss someone. I want to be selfish and keep that moment entirely to the two of us... It could be that I'm shy, too, but mainly I just don't want to share it.

    Does that sound horrible?!? It might be a matter of personalities when it comes to different preferences in this area...

  2. Very interesting... :) I haven't heard that point of view before... :) No, it doesn't sound horrible... I think it definitely has something to do with personalities.

    I do think that the moment, even if it is shared with others will be entirely just the two of you! I'm planning on being in my own little world on my wedding day!!! ;)
