This kiss, this kiss (unstoppable) This kiss, this kiss

Mrs. Spring, on September 23, 2020 at 11:15 PM Posted in Wedding Ceremony 0 30
Yes, this post may be strange and silly!


I attended three weddings last year and I noticed when eavesdropping, that a few guests made comments about how the couple's kiss wasn't "romantic."
How does one make a kiss "romantic?!" Is it a peck? A long kiss? Closed or open mouthed kiss?
How do you plan to kiss your future spouse at the ceremony?

    Passionate. There are kiss that’s just a kiss, and there is this:


    Look at your spouse in the eyes. Deep in his eyes, while thinking how much you love him. Hold him so close you can breath each other’s breath. Before you kiss him, look at his eyes, then while your eyes wander to his lips imagine how his kiss tasted and bite your lower right/left lips, then you look back into his eyes, then you close your eyes and kiss him slowly, yet feel his lips, his tongue, his hands around you, hold him harder until you guys finish kissing. Don’t even worry about your surroundings. That moment should be remembered for a long time. After the kiss, say “I love you”. Enjoy! 😘

    I mean, we're not having a makeout sesh, but it's definitely not just going to be a peck. I think we're going for on the longer side but not super open-mouthed?? And honestly, even if the guests don't think it was romantic, it's not their opinion that matters. I've found it tends to take the full dip kiss and everything to please those kinds of people.

    I, uh, launched myself at DH, he had to catch me, my arms went around his neck, I bent one hand down to go through his hair, and we leaned a little to accommodate the part where I launched myself at him. He held me tight around the waist.

    Then we kissed again.

    We're actors, we're good at this kind of thing.

    Is anyone worried about makeup? Lol. I'm in an interracial relationship and when we got our engagement pictures done, I found myself wiping his face every time we kissed.
    I haven't given the kissing much thought, but what kind of lipstick are you guys wearing?

    Kissing your partner in front of 150 people (that you are close to, while they cheer you on) is not a romantic or comfortable environment for a lot of people. Given this, I don't think it's the couple's responsibility to please the guests with how they kiss. I can see a guest thinking it wasn't romantic if it was just a peck, but anything other than that I think is rather picky.

    I hadn't given it much though but probably will kiss for a few seconds.

    I'm not in an interracial relationship but have you tried setting powder/spray? That might help!

    We had a regular, closed mouth, kiss that lasted about 5-8 seconds. I do not want to see couples making out at the alter, so I figured no one wanted to see us make out either.

    The make up artist put setting spray on my face. But its okay, my FH jokes that he just needs to carry wet wipes with him.

    I’ve heard a lot of people talk about and stress about the kids at the altar. Personally, I’ve never even thought about it. I figure whatever kiss we feel like doing in that moment will happen! I don’t once a planned out, rehearsed kiss for my wedding.... I want it to be spontaneous and real!

    Kiko Milano Double Face. They are the last longest lipstick I ever use. I have to brush it with toothpaste and toothbrush gently to remove it, which turns out to be a great method to make my lips smooth too.

    Same here but I have a sneaky suspicion that the FH has plans for this...he's not a show off kind of guy but something in my nuggets is telling me he may just make this his big breakthrough moment. LOL

    Just saw my DJ posted a social media memory of when he got married. The memory was a video of them "practicing" the kiss. Never thought of doing this until I saw this posting. I plan to record "practice" videos so I can see what others will see.

    This. After hundreds of weddings: some will complain quick kisses are not romantic, some will say long kisses are inappropriate and should be briefer ... Remember that here the kiss is to seal the deal, but not be a sexual act, and is in front of 10-200 people of 3 or more generations. Kiss in a way that is comfortable for you in the situation. ... If you do something that seems staged or uncomfortable to you, one of you will hesitate and likely one will stammer or blush. So do not stage things, or prolong things unless you want to hear about it forever. No 10 steps of kissing needed. Be natural.
