Is a girl supposed to have an engagment ring and wedding band? I dont understand the difference and how the whole ring process works.

I dont know how else to ask this question because Im so confused but please help if possible. Thank you!

Wedding Ring/Band and Proposal/Marriage process questions? I am about to propose but have several questions. I know I am supposed to give her a wedding ring and a wedding band. I'm under the impression that the ring is the fancy one with the jewels and the band is like a second ring without jewels. Is this correct? I know I give one to her when I propose and one during the wedding. Does she get the fancy ring when I propose and the band at the wedding or is it the other way around? Either way, I know she gets one of those when I propose. So after I propose (and yes, I know she will accept lol), I assume she puts the ring on immediately. So is it correct that during the engagement, only the woman wears a ring? And the man does not? Final question: At the wedding we exchange rings (or bands). Is the female supposed to get the man's wedding ring? As you can see, I only have a hazy idea of how the process works. I would appreciate any help one can give. Thanks in advance =)

Wedding ring/band were delivered late and unfinshed; what are my legal rights? Hello, I purchased an engagement ring from a large chain wedding jeweler. I went back to purchase the wedding band and was promised it on April 1. The wedding was April 5. About 2 weeks after the order I was asked to bring the ring in so the band could match it. Numerous calls were made and unreturned prior to the 1st and on the evening of the 1st we were told that nothing would be ready until the middle of April because both pieces were sent out to be made. After much yelling I was able to get them to contact the ring-maker so that the items would be back for the wedding. To make a long story short, the ring and band were not delivered until 9pm on April 4th, the night before the wedding, and the band is unfinished. I now have to bring both the ring and band back to the store to be finished. Am I entitled to compensation for this? Is this a breach of contract? Any help would be greatly appreciated. All of the documentation we have shows a promised date of April 1st. We did not wait long to get the bands; we ordered well in advance but since it came from a specific designer they said it took longer.

THEN we heard that it doesn't make sense to take off the engagement ring to put the wedding band, so shouldn't the wedding band be second? Please help :) we really appreciate it.

Engagement Ring/Wedding Band question? Hi everyone, I would like to buy an engagement ring for my girlfriend but I was thinking of buying the matching wedding band as well.

Thank you for your answers, Dave

Just wearing wedding band, not band & engagement ring? Just wondering if this is or is not common. My fiance got an aquamarine engagement ring for me and I am having a very hard time finding a ring that will sit nicely next to it that will be the wedding band. Someone suggested "just buy a standard wedding band and wear your engagement ring on your other hand". What do you think? Will it look weird wearing my engagement ring on my right hand with just a band on my left? I love my engagement ring. The difficulty is that the stone is set fairly low, it is a rectangular shape, so the band actuall "steps" out. I've tried ring wraps and guards, but they tend to be made for round center stones and they look a tad awkward with my rectangular ring. I can get away with it, but I am thinking of this idea of just wearing the band on my left hand. What do you think? A Custom made ring is out of our price-range. I looked at a curved band with small diamond chips that looked nice, nothing that screamed 'thats the perfect band for my engagement ring' and its price tag was $1,600. We were only budgeting for $1,000 for both of our rings - we wanted to keep them simple.

Am I wrong to want a new wedding band? Wearing mother in laws ring...Ahh!? So, when I got engaged my husband didn't have much money (we were both poor university students) and he gave me his mother's wedding ring. I don't really like it, and he said I could get a new one later for one of our anniversaries. It was made out to be really neat that I got the ring, to keep it in the family. We've been married 5 years. His mom and I don't get along that well, and needless to say she basically told me she would've never given him the ring if she had known we wouldn't be living up to her standards (religiously). When my husband and I had a little rocky period, she told me that he's just like his father and that their marriage was awful and the ring represented nothing but broken promises to her. So she gave it to me- Nice huh! :) I just want a new ring that I like! Would it be wrong to sell the ring or should I give it back to my mother in law?

Wedding Band and Engagement Ring? I know that the Wedding Band is worn underneath her Engagement Ring (closest to her heart... awe).

Or does she just walk up the isle without the ring and we take care of all that jazz later???

A husband is asking back the engagement ring & wedding band. Is it a crime for a ran away wife to keep it?

She got back her purse but some documents were missing and all her money was gone. He took it. Now, he demands back his ring. Is it a crime to keep the ring? She needed some money for the ring because he took all her money from her.
