OK, so this may sound strange, but.. What do you do with your engagement ring on the day? Do you wear it to the ceremony then discreetly take it off when you get there before the rings bit? Or not wear it at all, or just take it off at the ring bit?
Seems a silly question but hey ho.

Most people wear it on their ring finger on the other hand, at least for the ceremony x

Ah, good idea thanks:)
CommentAuthorTheNewMrsBarrett
Yeah, I put mine on the ring finger of my right hand then moved it over while we were signing the register. If you didn't want to do that, could you give it to MOH/ chief bridesmaid or someone to look after it til you're ready to put it back on? Xx
CommentAuthorStephH96
It's just us two, so won't be anyone to hold it. Think I'll put it on my right hand . thanks :D
Oops sorry, didn't realise it was just the 2 of you lol (you've possibly said on another thread and I've forgotten?). You might prefer to put it on your right hand anyway, I didn't want to be without mine on the day at all lol xx
CommentAuthorEllie95
I didn't even think about this :O
I like the idea of putting it on your right hand (if it fits :P) I think I will be doing that, you don't want to thumble around changing the rings during the exchange xoxo

CommentAuthorStephH96
MrsB we are going to Vegas ;). It is a little tighter on my right hand but should be fine. Rather that than not wear it.
CommentAuthorleasa
I wore mine on my right hand, I thought about leaving it at home, but the sentimental part of me wanted my engagement ring at the ceremony. I'm glad I did, lots of people asked to see it on the day.

I will ask my mom to keep it for the ceremony and then put it on after. It wouldn't fit on my right hand comfortably.

CommentAuthorFlossie
I'm not sure I want to put my engagement ring back on on the day... for the ring photos I think I'd prefer just to have my wedding ring on, not sure if I can be bothered faffing about with it... I will probably just leave it somewhere safe in the hotel room and pop it back on the next morning.
Happily married

I put mine on my other hand, then put it back onto ring finger with wedding ring during the meal. We didn't want ring photos so wasn't a problem

I'm planning to wear mine on my right hand and switch it over. I am not sure how my wedding band will look on it's own as its being made to fit my engagement ring. Pick it up Thursday - nervous, but excited too!

I've just tried mine on my right hand. It's a bit big but I'll wear if once we get to the reception and finished photos etc

CommentAuthorKirstyR386
Does it sound really stupid to say that my finger feels naked without it? So I think I'll be wearing it on my right hand. X
CommentAuthorStephH96
Kirsty I agree. I dont wear it to the gym and it feels so weird when I first take it off!
CommentAuthorWundatigga
I've not even received my ring yet (apparently OH has ordered it now at least). I am a divorcee, and even though I didn't really miss my rings after my divorce, it's like my finger remembers what it felt like and since we got engaged it's sort of looking for it haha!

I put it on my right hand, and moved it back later in the day (when I remembered)
CommentAuthorMrs T Hurley!
When Kate Middleton got married to Prince William, she had her ring on the same finger of her right hand. I have also been told that this is the tradition when you start planning your wedding!! Not sure if this is true though! x
