And once you discover the perfect ring, you may ask the question, “How exactly should I wear my wedding band with my solitaire ring?” No worries, many brides have the same curiosity and we’ve got you covered! It’s true that many people wear the engagement ring and wedding ring together, but you certainly do not have to. Traditionally, brides wear the wedding ring closest to their heart, and the engagement ring should be placed right next to it. On your actual wedding day, you should switch the engagement ring to the third finger on your right hand. During the ceremony, your significant other will romantically slip the wedding band on your ring finger.
However you choose to wear your rings simply personalizes your relationship and commitment to each other. Just be sure your rings are sized comfortably and take them to your local jeweler for an annual inspection and cleaning. You, my dear, will sparkle for a lifetime.
