We had an earlyish wedding. Our reception ended at 8 and then a few of us headed out to the bar at the hotel where our guests were. I got tired and went to bed at some point while DH went out to smoke cigars with his groomsmen. No sexy time on our wedding night. I also forgot to pack clothes to change into besides my PJs so we headed out for our honeymoon in the clothes I wore the previous day.
I was ((didn't know it then)) but less than 3 weeks away from giving birth to our first son. I had contractions all day. Didn't tell anyone we were getting married except for my parents who witnessed. Hired an ordained dude from yellow-pages and a photographer for an hour. She also did some maternity shots for me too hahahahsha Waddled down to the neighborhood gazebo and had our 5 minute ceremony. Stayed at a B&B and was too pregnant to get into the huge bed. We consummated because my hubs insisted but we were snoring by 9pm.

We had decided to stop having sex 6 months before the wedding, so we did it just because we felt obligated. It was really forced and not all that great though. Then we slept.

Was that the dirty sanchez night?? ?
Not even close. That night was years before. I was in high school....
We had a kick ass after party in a 9 bedroom suite in a hotel I used to work at, that was right down the street from our reception. The reception ended at 9:00 and we headed to the hotel and consummated our marriage before joining the party. It wasn't planned that way. I figured it wouldn't happen because we were going to be partying. But he closed the door to get changed and turned to me and said "we gotta f#%k"! So we did. IN the dress. So hot and so glad we did!

I ended up with a migraine so we did nothing but try to find which one of the family members at the hotel at the drugs so I could get some sleep. But then we spent a week at Disneyland and all was right again.
We ended up going to the bars with our friends after the reception and then came back with our close friends to the hotel and got into the yummy leftover plates the catering people made for us from the wedding. They all left and we passed out. I ended up getting a yeast infection the next day from all the parting and drinking and we didn't consumate our wedding till a week after we were married.

Our reception ended around midnight so I was exhausted by then but we got a ride home from my parents (so romantic I know) We had shower sex, and opened some of our cards before calling it a night.
We didn't take our honeymoon until December, we married in July so the next day we went up to an indoor water park for the day/night as a small getaway.
We had a small wedding and the dinner was over by 7pm. We came home and watched a baseball game and then DTD in our bed.
Our honeymoon was about two months later. We didn't DTD at all then because I was six weeks pregnant and we were staying in an non-air conditioned apartment in Paris during a heat wave.

We were both so tired, sore, and hungry after our wedding...we ordered pizza to our hotel room, ate the pizza while relaxing in the jacuzzi, and then went to bed like a couple of lame-os.
We got a super fancy hotel room for after our reception and although I'm glad we did (just so we didn't go home after...made it a little more special/formal), it was pretty much a waste of money. We stayed at our reception until 1 am and by the time we got back to the hotel we were exhausted! I also realized I forgot the beautiful bridal lingerie I had bought and was bummed, but DH didn't care. We dtd, it was sweet but normal (we were so tired) and passed out. by the time we got up it was check - out time so we didn't even use the fancy hotel pool or anything. My one really sweet memory from that is after getting into the hotel room and I'm standing there in my dress, DH said "wait, let me just look at you for a minute. I want to remember this forever" and he just stared and stared at me in my dress, smiling and all glammed up.

awwwww you win
but linzerd 's hot wedding dress sex is a close second (IMHO anyways)
We got back to our room late after dancing/ partying with our friends and family. MH had took much to drink so when we got back to our room he just passed out in his suit. No morning sex either... He was too hung over. Because of that we were a bit late to our present opening brunch. I did have a great soak in the jacuzzi tub while he slept in, that was a nice treat!

I have never heard of such a thing.

They are pretty common here. My SIL hosted. We had a catered brunch at her house with our immediate family and MH and I opened our gifts. We had fairly small wedding, about 70 ppl) so the gift portion didn't take very long. It was really just another excuse for our families to get together since they live at opposite ends of the country.
We had a kick ass reception and when it ended at 9 the bus took us and our guests back to the hotel. We went up the the room to change and then decided that we might as well stay in our wedding clothes and joined our guests down at the bar. We stayed there till closing, and then went up to our room with some close friends and cousins and drank a fancy bottle of champagne. By the time everyone left it was like 2 am and we were both exhausted. No sex for us, we didn't' dtd till we got to Spain on our honey moon. We'd been together for 5 years and lived together for 3 so the whole sex on our wedding night thing just didn't matter so much to us.

We left our reception when it ended around 11:30, so by the time we got into our hotel room it was probably 12 or 12:30 am. We were exhausted and I couldn't wait to get out of my dress. The scalloped lace around the top was rubbing the inside of my upper arms raw, and one of the bones or whatever you want to call it in my bustier had rubbed a spot raw on my side (salt water on our honeymoon....ouch!).
We couldn't have "normal" sex because I was suffering from vaginismus at the time (sex hurt like a mofo), so we did 69, but I was too tired to get there so of course MH got off and I collapsed into bed, tired but frustrated.
I'll admit I skipped all the responses,...only because I need to post mine!
So an evening wedding, I realize my groom is a little buzzed during the Catholic ceremony. After that, we get to the reception and he is complaining about dancing our first dance. Pissing me off! So then his best mans speech, is all about him and how he met his wife and how happy he is. With a few F bombs in the mix. So then we get to the "money dance", my H decides, in a drunk slur, "I just wanna dance with my wife", so I push him off and continue having fun. At the end of the night, we load up in a van to bring us to the casino/hotel, and he spills wine all over me and we go to the Glo Bar to get a beer and all of a sudden he's ready to go to bed. So, whatever, go to the room, order room service even though we had leftovers from the reception, then I asked him "what did Kailyn do walking down the aisle", Kailyn is my niece that was in the wedding, he says "I don't remember",...that's when the fight started. I was so pissed that he was drunk and couldn't remember the wedding and so I started packing my suitcase and he asked me "where you gonna go" I told him "my Momma will come get me". Then I started crying and he consoled me and that was the end. We have made it this far, that was in 2012.

All in all, it wasn't really terrible. We both had a lot of fun, the reason he was complaining about the first dance is he didn't like being the center of attention and everyone watching us. But yeah, he has since made up for it and was told several times after the wedding how disappointed I was.
But I look back now and only think happy about it. I still remember the bad parts, but there were some great parts too.
