Weddings and engagements are milestones steeped in etiquette and tradition. A common tradition involves the placement of engagement rings and wedding bands. Knowing how to wear these rings is sometimes confusing.

At The Diamond Guys, we make unique engagement rings and wedding bands and guide you on how to wear them. Read on to find out how to wear your wedding band and engagement ring. 

Conventional Wedding Ring Rules

Wearing your engagement ring differs on and after the wedding day. 

Day Of The Wedding

On your wedding day, switch your engagement ring to your right hand (on the third finger). Your spouse places your wedding band on your left hand (ring finger) during the wedding ceremony. Putting the wedding band on this finger means positioning your loved ones close to your heart.

After The Wedding

Once you’re married, your engagement band should be moved back to the left hand on your ring finger. Tradition dictates that your wedding band should remain in the position placed by your spouse. It must be stacked below the engagement ring on the left hand (ring finger).

Unconventional Wedding Ring Rules

Some people choose to ignore ring etiquette and infuse their own style. Some of the variations that exist regarding ring placement include

• Forego wearing the engagement ring
• Wear your engagement  ring on a different hand 
• Weld the rings together

At The Diamond Guys, we encourage you to wear your ring or band any way you please as long as you are comfortable. Make sure that the wedding band and engagement ring are appropriately sized.
