The Wedding Bands

Wedding rings are the most common symbol of marriage today. They are seen as an announcement to the world of a man and a woman’s lifelong commitment to each other.

The Engagement Ring

While engagement rings have only romantic connotations today, they originated for a much different purpose. They were used as a symbol of a groom purchasing his bride. The engagement ring was partial payment – a symbol of his good intentions as a husband and provider. The ring was traditionally worn on the ring finger of the left hand because it was believed that the vein in the finger went straight to the heart.
