The Engagement ring should be off during wedding ceremony, but you can wear this ring on right hand.

At noon, one of my closest friends is getting married!  She is a sun-lover, so it'll be an appropriate day for her.\n\nAny other ritual/celebration depends on my significant other... if she's up for a ritual, we'll have one (indoors, unfortunately... no "comfortable" area outdoors for us to do anything "formal")... otherwise, I will just do a little meditation in my room before bed and most likely read aloud the Summer Solstice passages from DJConway's Celtic Magic.\n\nBright Blessings!

I believe that a promise ring is more for younger people to give as a lot of promises get broken.  An engagement ring is presented when you ask a woman if she will accept your hand in marriage.

YOU CAN DO WHATEVER YOU WANT THAT DAY. ITS YOUR WEDDING. I DID IT ON MINE AND NOT ONE PERSON SAID ANYTHING TO ME. IF THEY DO JUST SAY THAT YOU ARE NERVOUS AND TO MIND THIER OWN BUSINESS. ITS NOT A BIG DEAL. ME AND MY HUSBAND BOTH DID IT. MAYBE OTHER GUESTS OR MEMBERS WILL JOIN YOU

Don't listen to all these people.\nIt is probably a case of cold feet jitters-I went trough that right before my wedding too!\nJust talk to your intended and see how they feel, and just go with your gut. Remember, you can call it off at the altar if you like, but if you cancel now, it's definitely off.

just the engagement ring

I perfer inside, because if you have an outside wedding it could be windy and mess everything up, or it could rain. Anything can happen if you have an outside wedding, but if you plan an indoor wedding everything would be more likely to go as planned.

Of course your fiancee will be hurt, who wouldn't?  Don't stay with someone and marry them if you're not absolutely certain.  You're just putting your happiness on the backburner for someone else - and you don't need that either.  It's never too late to call anything off - even if you're walking down the aisle already.  You haven't said "I DO" yet.  Unless you want to end up another divorce statistic, I'd say call it off.  Marriage can be very rewarding and wonderful if you find the right person and I think that's what you should do (find Mr. Right, not settle for Mr. Right Now)

i wear my engagement ring closest to the knuckle of my hand because to me the engagement ring is a promise that the guy will always be there for you no matter what and the wedding ring on top of the engaagement ring, because the wedding ring is the thing that ties you both together for all eternity

Depends on how long you have been with this person.  But if it has been long enogh that you know you want to take the relationship to the next level, every girl wants to get engaged on Valentine's Day.  If you aren't ready give her a ring and tell her to wear it on the right hand and tell her when both of you are ready you will move it to the left. (I always thought that would be sweet)

I think you should leave it on all day. Or you can ask your spouse to turn it on by phone.

It is perfectly fine to buy a new ring. It isn't who bought the ring or how much it costs (though it's turning your finger green, it might not last very long), it's the meaning behind it. My boyfriend split our Engagement ring 50/50 because we were both in college as well. You might first want to talk to your fiance. Tell him how the metal is irritating your finger (which it will, if it hasn't yet) and ask him to go with you. Let him know how much you love the ring and you love him, but, how the ring just needs alittle touching up. Good luck and Congrats!

The engagement ring is traditionally worn on the left hand. Engagements rings are a tradition oraginally started in Italy (not to be confused with wedding rings, which are Egyptian), but in todays modern world you can wear it on either hand on any finger. My engagement ring is on my traditional third digit, left hand.\n\nBut remember, a lot of women don't get engagement rings (Princess Diana was given a necklace and earring set by Prince Charles for their engagement) they get other things. This can go from jewelry to gowns to any other "gift" a man is willing to shower on his affection. Some women don't even get anything for an engagement, but elect to put the money to better use, such as a house or even nicer wedding rings. \n\nMy engagement ring was actually my mother's (who is currently deceased) and my fiance hunted down my father (who I hadn't see in over 17 years) to get it or something else that belonged to my mother. It's a very cherished gift and we didn't have to spend a dime on it!

I,too, am married and have problems with wearing my rings but not for reasons people may think. Both my wedding ring and engagement ring are way too big even though I had them resized recently. When I had them resized, they fit for approximately two weeks and then once again they were falling off my fingers. When my husband first discovered I had this problem, he went out and bought me a necklace that matched the color of my rings and I were my rings around my neck everywhere I go. My husband never really punished me for not wearing them; however he did tease me until he thought of buying me a necklace. If you had a good reason for not wearing your rings then your husband had NO RIGHT TO PUNISH YOU!!!! As for some of these people giving you answers, they are being way to narrow-minded and judgmental; and if you ask me those poeple are probably not even married. People need to be a little more consideratewhen they are responding to other peoples' questions.

ring finger  - finger next to pinky - on right hand\nyour wedding ring goes on the same finger, but the engagement ring needs to come off first so that the wedding ring can go on first and be closer to your heart, then the engagment ring goes back on\nmu husband took my engagement ring before the wedding and then put them both on me properly at the wedding

Surprise....its the best, do it while you are doing something you are always doing....like if you two jog in the morning stop suddenly and act like you are tying your shoes, while she waits and chit chats, pull the ring out and propose.....its all about the surprise.
