Girls often wear two rings because one is traditionally an engagement ring, symbolizing an intent to marry, and the other is a wedding ring, presented during the wedding ceremony.
Here's a breakdown of the purpose of each ring:
- Engagement Ring: According to tradition, the engagement ring is given, generally to the woman, as a symbol of an intent to marry.
- Wedding Ring: The wedding ring is presented to both members of the couple during the wedding ceremony.
Ring Type | Purpose | Presentation Time |
---|---|---|
Engagement Ring | Symbol of intent to marry | Before the wedding |
Wedding Ring | Presented during the wedding ceremony | During the wedding ceremony |
