When it comes to wearing your wedding and engagement rings, there are a few traditions and guidelines to follow, but ultimately it comes down to personal preference. Here are some tips on how to wear your wedding and engagement rings:
- Wear your engagement ring on your ring finger on your left hand
Traditionally, the engagement ring is worn on the ring finger of the left hand, which is said to have a vein that runs directly to the heart.
- Wear your wedding ring on the same finger, but on top of the engagement ring
After the wedding ceremony, the wedding ring is typically worn on the same finger as the engagement ring, but on top of it. This is thought to symbolize the joining of two people in marriage.
- Consider wearing the rings on different hands or fingers
If wearing the rings on the same finger feels uncomfortable or cumbersome, you can consider wearing them on different fingers or even different hands. Some people choose to wear their engagement ring on their right hand or on a different finger, while others choose to wear their wedding ring alone.
- Mix and match styles
If you have an engagement ring and wedding band that are vastly different in style, you can consider wearing them on different hands or fingers. This can also be a great option if you want to wear both rings but don’t want to wear them on the same finger.
- Consider adding a spacer
If wearing both rings on the same finger feels too tight or uncomfortable, you can consider adding a spacer between the two rings. This can be a thin band or even a small piece of plastic or silicone that helps the rings sit comfortably on your finger.
Ultimately, how you wear your wedding and engagement rings is up to you. Some people choose to stick to tradition, while others prefer to mix things up or even wear one ring at a time. Whatever you choose, make sure it feels comfortable and reflects your personal style and preferences.
