Curious...?

I dunno...i was just wondering.

When she gets married, does she wear her engagement ring on the day of her wedding? You know, like to the alter and all?

Coz by far, i've never seen a bride walk down the aisle with a ring on (engagement ring, of course).

I mean, what's wrong...it is her engagement ring.

    I plan to wear mine on my right hand (it's not part of one of those 'bridal sets', so I couldn't wear it on the left hand anyway...it's an antique-shaped sort of ring).

    I think I read somewhere this is what the Greeks do. They change over to the right hand and wear it there from then on.

    Yes, it's traditional to wear the engagement ring and the wedding band is placed on the finger with it, during the ceremony. Some time after the ceremony, both rings are removed and turned around, so that the wedding band is on the inside (closest to the heart).

    I've never heard of a bride removing her engagement ring...however she might do so if it didn't match her wedding band and she planned to wear the band only, after marriage.

    She can do whatever she wants. Many brides do wear the engagement ring down the aisle but it's not a requirement.

    Usually she would wear it on the other hand, that's what I did.

    The bride needs to have the hand bare, which will be receiving the wedding band. Then after the ceremony, she puts the engagement ring on overtop of the wedding band.

    No, she puts it back on AFTER the wedding. This is because the focus is on the wedding rings right now and the symbolization of that one main ring.

    I don't think so because she would have to take it off during the ceremony and what if it doesn't come off right away?
