It would be 'consummate', particularly since you remember it from a wedding. A marriage is considered 'consummated' after the couple has intercourse, making it 'complete' and legally binding. Even today, if a marriage is not consummated, a couple can get an annulment almost immediately, without going through formal divorce proceedings. Rather archaic, but there you have it.

To consumate the marriage is to have sex for the first time after the ceremony.

consummate?
Is that what you're looking for? It means "To bring to completion or fruition; conclude" (http://dictionary.reference.com/search?r=2&q=consummate)
In a marriage its to seal the deal with the first act of sexual intercourse.
