The Rings In Wedding
Wedding is a celebration cite for several old traditions rooted from forgotten Wedding rituals
. One of its most widespread tradition is the exchange of gifts. Although some of its tradition has been largely changed since that time, such as the giving of dowry, the exchange of wedding rings are still very popular in every wedding celebrations. Wedding rings are usually treated as a symbol of marriage. A spouse wears it to indicate a marital commitment to fidelity.
In Wedding
In more elaborate weddings, a ring bearer (usually a young boy that is part of the family of the bride or groom) may assist in the ceremonial parading of the ring(s) into the ceremony, often on a special cushion or pillow(s).
Not only in England was the wedding ring considered more connected to the exchange of valuables at the moment of the
Wedding than a symbol of eternal love and devotion but in most other European countries as well. Sometimes it went as far as being a conditional exchange as this German formula shows: 'I give you this ring as a sign of the marriage which has been promised between us, provided your father gives with you a marriage portion of 1000 Reichsthalers'.
In some European countries, the wedding ring is the same as the engagement ring and changes its status through engraving and the change of the hand on which to wear it. If the
Wedding ring is different from the engagement ring, the question whether or not the engagement ring should be worn during the ceremony leaves a few options. The bride may wear it on her left ring finger and have the groom put the wedding band over it. She may also wear it on her right ring finger.
The bride may also continue wearing the rings on different hands after the wedding this may prevent the engagement ring from scratching and scuffing. Another option is to have the main bridesmaid keep the ring during the ceremony there are a variety of ways to keep it: in a pouch, on a plate, etc. After the ceremony, the ring can be placed back on either the left or the right hand.
