It doesn't sound very romantic, but sleep in seperate rooms. I am a snorer, and from what people say, its like my Dad was, loud, uneven, and very annoying. My husband is a very light sleeper, and gets no rest when we try to sleep together. Yes, we have a great marriage, and I think that this is part of it. We respect each other enough to do something that doesn't feel natural at first....but helps both of us rest and live better.
We tried all the tips, tricks, breathe right strips, nasal sprays, pillows....but it didn't work. So this is one thing we cannot share. But we make up for it in the rest of our marriage! Since we actually get real rest, we are more loving, happy, and want to spend lots of time together in the days.

It depends. If they have sleep apnea ( a condition that a neurologist determines through a sleep study), then they can use a breathing mask when they sleep to keep them breathing correctly and greatly reduces snoring.
If it's just regular run-of-the-mill snoring, you might need to wear earplugs or sleep in another room after sex. Either can be a good answer. I had a girlfriend who snored and I just went home shortly after she went to sleep so I could get some shut-eye.
Good luck!

I generally just push/shove my husband a little until he turns on his side, and then he stops snoring long enough for me to go to sleep. I don't know whether the nasil strips work, but that could be an option. Good Luck, I know it can be rough...my husband snores...and it can be so frustrating when you get to listen to them snore instead of sleeping. Merry Christmas!!!

Snoring most commonly starts when the person sleeps flat on their back, Encourage your partner to sleep on their side and place a body pillow behind them to prevent them from rolling onto their backs during the night.

My husband snores REALLY bad and I'm a light sleeper. He has tried the nose strips, but nothing works. I just wear ear plugs.

Hmmm, is this my husband asking? *lol* I have a terrible snoring problem. Using a humidifier helps me. Also raising the head of the bed a couple inches is supposed to help. Nasal strips..i dunno, but worth a try.

inform him of the effect that its having on you, the relationship and suggest that he go to a sleep doctor to get tested for sleep apatha. which is a sleep disorder. he also need to check his health overall. i believe this would be a great start. GodBless

Sleep in another room. Have fun in their room, but then go sleep where you can actually sleep in peace!
