Should i use protection on honeymoon?
Next Aug. me & my fiance are getting married... but here's the thing, we've never had sex before, and so pretty much the wedding night/honeymoon are going to be the first times we'll have done that... What i'm wondering is should we use protection when we have honeymoon sex AFTER we're married, or is it ok then BECAUSE we're married?
and she doesn't want to have kids right away

Depends if you want to have kids right away or not.
If not, you need some type of protection. You should consult a doctor to be told about the types that are available and how to use them; it doesn't have to be condoms although they offer the best type of protection against diseases as well.
If you don't use protection you will very likely have kids right away.

Here's the thing. If you aren't ready to have kids right away, birth control is an absolute must. This could mean barriers or this could mean hormonal or other methods. If you are considering foregoing condoms, I would like to recommend you hold off for a while. While neither of you have had sex before, have either of you engaged in sexual activity before such as oral sex or other ways bodily fluids could have been exchanged? If the answer is yes, I would strongly recommend both of you getting an STI screening before you decide to leave off the condoms. If your results come back normal, you can safely choose to not use barriers, but your fiancee should make a decision with you and her gynecologist what the best form of birth control would be.

Protection is used as a form of birth control and to prevent STDs.
We have already established you require birth control.
Do you require protection from STDs? I would assume yes unless you each have been tested in the clear. Haven't been tested yet? Go. Doesn't matter that you're virgins...not to mention how many people lie about virginity...go get the peace of mind.
Now...for birth control....hormonal birth control methods are the most reliable, but all of those on the market right now are for women, and so taking birth control and preventing pregnancy is her responsibility. Do you trust her with this responsibility...knowing how huge the consequences are?
If you trust your wife, understand the risks and are both cleared of STDs...then you can surrender the condom.
However, if you feel the need to do your part to prevent pregnancy and STDs, such as if your wife forgets pills sometimes, or you just really don't know much about sex and pregnancy prevention just yet...please keep up with the condoms. They're your insurance against pregnancy.

Before your get married if you have been sexually active you need to get tested for std and sti's. The fact that it is your honeymoon has little to do with you decision to use protection the question you and your partner need to talk about is if you want to have children now... if the answer is yes no protection needed... if the answer is no there are different options to consider for birth control, i would recommend birth control pills , shot, ring, implant as the intimacy of not using a condom when you married is something I am sure you will want to consider.

You need to talk to your fiance
If you do not use protection, she can have a child
Marry or not, unprotected sex you can get pregnant
I would suggest you sit and talk to your fiance about it
If she okay with not protection on the honeymoon, then you have your answer
If she is not, you both need to decided what type of birth control
If she does not want to go to the doctors, they always condoms and spermicide(use both)
She could go to the doctor and use birth control she gets plus spermicide and condom or just one of them
Birth control is something you both need to talk about before
Nobody except her can tell you if you should use protection on your honeymoon or not

since she doesn't want to have kids right away you should respect her wishes and use protection. You could ask her to go on the pill or use another form of birth control if you guys are uncomfortable using condoms.

Really, hon, you need to look up info about sex. Nobody is this stupid today. Yes, you would need to use two forms of birth control if you absolutely do not want kids. Condoms can fail. Birth control can fail. Using both helps a lot.

LOL well if you ask me, I think its pretty hilarious to be using CONDOMS with your husband/wife!!
No, don't use condoms. But if your worried about getting pregnant, then tell her to get on Birth Control as a preventative measure. Since you've never done it, pulling out won't be your forte so go for the birth control. Just know though that the 1st month is always void if you are using the birth control pill.

Do you two want to have children? If so then dont use protection. If you guys are planning to wait to have kids then use a condom and look into birth control.

You need to discuss this with your honey. Are you going to try and start a family right away, or are you going to wait a while. Is Is she going to go on birth control pills or some other type....then she needs to go on it about 3 months before your wedding so her system has time to regulate itself.
Good Luck.....
