wedding first then engagement - when you attend your wedding you are to remove your engagement ring and place it on your right hand so that the wedding band can be put on. Then the engagement ring will be put on after the wedding band. This keeps the wedding band closest to your heart.

Rather than just coming out and saying "that's not going to happen," my opinion would be to try and try and try again.  What better gift can a future spouse receive than you on your wedding night - with a commitment that you have chosen to become pure - again - for this night only.  It is perfectly OK to start making that commitment now.  Buy yourself a purity/commitment ring and wear it on your ring finger and really try each day to live out that commitment.  Believe me, it will change your life =)  My opinion:  Wait until marriage!!!  Best wishes =)

"Before medical science discovered how the circulatory system functioned, people believed that a vein of blood ran directly from the fourth finger on the left hand to the heart. (This belief allegedly dates to the 3rd century BC in Greece.) Because of the hand-heart connection, people named the putative vein descriptively vena amori, Latin for 'the vein of love'. Due to this tradition, it became accepted to wear the wedding ring on this finger. By wearing rings on the fourth finger of their left hands, a married couple symbolically declares their eternal love for each other. This has now become a matter of tradition and etiquette.\n\nIn most Western cultures, the wedding ring is worn on the left hand. In some countries, however, such as Germany, Norway, and Chile, it is worn on the right hand. Orthodox Christians, Eastern Europeans and Jews also traditionally wear the wedding band on the right hand.\n\nEtiquette frowns severely on the making of sexual overtures to a man or woman wearing a wedding ring."\n\nFor wedding invitations, be sure to check out http://announcements.com \n\nThey have a huge selection, and usually ship within 2 business days.

I'm with you, I love both mine, but my daughter didn't like the one her fiance surprised her with, so she waited awhile and mentioned it and they went together and got a new one and it is fantastic.  Women should pick their engagement rings.

Everyone has their own preference, it seems. Do you use your hands in your work? Are you an artist? Do you care for small children? Play the piano? These are the kinds of things you can think about when choosing your ring.\n\nI guess I would love a ring that someone selected for me. I was married a long time ago, and his grandmother gave me her ring. And, the other times I've been engaged I've usually helped with the selection process - next time, I want the guy to do all the thinking!\n\nWhat a fun decision you have ahead of you.

Basically your only job is to hold on to the ring, so don't lose it or get it stuck on your own finger.\n\nThey should have a rehearsal before the wedding day to show you what to do and where to stand.

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.

Plain band= married, just a v. decorative ring with a stone in= engaged, plain band + decorative ring= married. Usually! Hope that helps! :)

whats more important is what not to wear out. That is your welcome. Go to the wedding and get out.

Engagement ceremonies vary tremendously depending on cultural backgrounds and traditions. You'll have to be more specific.

its very impotant for you to wear it. both of you should go together and get it resized. Its a symbol of your marriage and your love for eachother. You really do need to wear it.

some say it is closer to the heart but it all boils down to tradition it didn't matter which hand teh ring went on but our society is built on tradition and protacol, so some smart person came up with the idea of having the wedding band on the left hand probably because itis closer 2 the herat or someother theology but throughout history people just decided to follow this person with the bright idea and so we are hear to follow 2.

Nope.  I think your rings should be something you and your husband like.  After all, if you don't like it, you won't want to wear it.  The same goes for him.  You should be proud to show off your beautiful wedding bands, and believe me, people will ask to see them!!  \nThe important part is the symbolization that the rings hold.  They are a reminder of the commitment you and your new husband will have.  They should be a reminder that doesn't bring ANY bad thoughts to his mind or your mind!  \nRemember, even though you and your husband will be married, you're still individuals with different tastes in some things.  I feel like non-matching wedding rings remind you of your unity as a couple and your own personal uniqueness at the same time.

Either a) don't have one (best if you're just having the two of them stand up) or b) have two.  It's your wedding; do it the way you want.

The ring is just a symbol for others.....not for the bride and groom. You know that you are married so it is not really important that they match.(At least that is the way I see it). My husband and I don't wear rings at all.We figure it isn't important for others to see that we have decided to spend our lives together as long as we know it in our hearts.......Good luck to you.    =)

You can wear any rings on any finger you want. Some girls like it, some girls don't. They are just rings! Experiment, see which ones look best where and with what. I don't think the others have special meanings, but just like women guys can wear rings as much, and how often as they like. People say you shouldn't stuff them, it's your life! x
