Wedding ring and engagement ring question...

During the ceremony, where are you supposed to wear your engagement ring? Does it matter? I've seen it done a couple of different ways. Do you wear your engagement ring on your right hand on your ring finger until you have your wedding ring, and then put your engagement ring on after your wedding ring? Or do you leave your engagement ring on your left hand, ring finger, and then just put the wedding ring on after? I would think you'd put your wedding ring on after? I can't fit my engagement ring on my right hand, on my ring finger. It's too small? What are you guys doing??? Thanks again!

Wedding ring and engagement ring question...

I barely managed to fit my engagement ring on my right hand. I later moved it to the left hand after the ceremony. I've also read that you can ask your MOH to hold onto the ring for you until after the ceremony.

Wedding ring and engagement ring question...

I just read somewhere that you should put your engagement ring on any finger other than your left ring finger on the wedding day. Your wedding rings should always go on first and should go on the right finger. However, if your engagement ring won't fit on any other fingers, I would just hand it to your maid/matron of honor while you put your wedding ring on and then put it back on after. I may have that problem too and if so, that is what I am planning to do!

I read somewhere that you should not wear your engagement ring at all during the ceremony since it takes attention away from exchanging wedding rings. Give it to someone to hold for you and put it on after the ceremony above your wedding ring.

Another option

You could also ask your Mother or Grandmother to hold it for you, then they could give it back to you when you form the recieving line.

I'm giving it to my MOH to hold until I'm a Mrs! :) *NM*
