Outlander: 25 most romantic moments so far
25. Brianna and Roger’s wedding night
When it happened: It was a mid-point of the Outlander Season 5 premiere.
Why it happened: I don’t think the moment needs all that much explaining. However, it’s worth noting that this wasn’t just about Brianna and Roger consummating their marriage, but also about Claire and Jamie and Murtagh and Jocasta having their moments together.

Why it was so romantic: There are three big relationships by Outlander Season 5, Episode 1. All are at various stages of their relationships and at various stages of life.
It all starts with Roger playing a song from his time, almost like a wedding gift to his bride. It helps Brianna relax as he can tell that she’s nervous about something (although he doesn’t know exactly what). We then get clips of the three couples making love in their own sweet ways.
For Claire and Jamie, there’s an amusing element. They’re trying to get their night together while they babysit their grandson, Jemmy. It’s something they’ve never had to do, and it’s always fun seeing them truly together.
The moment for the three characters is necessary. We get nights of passion before the sunrise brings all the realities of life crashing back around them.
