consummation
Ultimate completion achieved
Consummation is the act of bringing something to completion or fulfillment.
A marriage is consummated when the couple first has sexual intercourse, legally completing the union.
More broadly, consummation marks the culmination of any process or achievement: the consummation of years of negotiation, the consummation of her lifelong dream.
