www.vouchercloud.com have discovered that many Brits are only faithful after they exchange vows, with a massive third who will cheat on their spouse-to-be on their pre-wedding celebrations.
Weddings on Female First
The average amount spent on a stripper is £120, so it’s no surprise that men and women want to get their money’s worth.
92% keep their indiscretions a secret from their partner, however a ballsy 8% tell their new husband or wife about being unfaithful.
The people in the study revealed their excuses for not keeping it in their pants:
1. I was drunk and things got out of control – 76%2. I had cold feet and felt stressed about the wedding – 65%
3. I wanted to enjoy my last chance of freedom – 54%
4. I had a ‘hall pass’ e.g. my partner agreed we could have a fling on our stag and hen dos - 38%
5. I was pressurised by other attendees of the stag or hen do – 12%
Those who keep their dalliances with another person to themselves are fearful that their partner would still end the relationship even though they are now married. The rest feared that their friends or family would grass on them leaving them no choice but to come clean.
Concerning the study, vouchercloud’s Matthew Wood had the following to say:
“I think it’s no secret that when full of alcohol and banter, things can get out of hand on these events and one of these things is the issue of cheating. Many people see this as their chance for a final fling before finally settling down. We were surprised to see that a good two thirds of the country remains faithful even in the excitement of their celebration. Concerning the findings on strip clubs, it seems that those who partake in these are obviously well paid or manage their finances pretty well! An average spend of £120 per person is a large chunk of money from the pre-nuptial party budget. Let’s hope it was worth it, and not something they regretted the next morning when they woke up with a sore head!”
