At what point does a man wear his ring after getting engaged?

My fiance is not wearing his until I put it on him at our ceremony.

My FH got promise rings for both of us in the first few months of our relationship. He has an all black one, and I have a heart ring with a bible verse. Now that we are engaged, my promise ring moved to my right hand, my engagement ring on the left- and my FH still wears his promise ring on the right hand.

If he hadn't gotten a promise ring, he would not be wearing a ring until we are married

My FH bought me a beautiful engagement ring but noticed I kept taking it off and forgetting to put it back on. I am a soon to graduate culinary student so wearing to school was impossible and it stood up to high to get used to it so it rested on my nightstand. I tearfully told him about the issue so he took the ring back. Two weeks later he presented me with a new ring, a titanium comfort band with rose gold inlay and had bought himself a thicker matching one. We started wearing them immediately and it never leaves my finger. We have to take them off next week to get them resurfaced (16 month engagement) and I know I'm going to miss it for the next 2 months until it's, once again, on my finger. I say let him wear it if that's what he wants to do. Just be sure to have them both cleaned so they're sparkly for your big day.

Men wear wedding rings... so they start wearing them at the wedding... Women get engagement rings and start wearing them upon getting engaged.

This is the typical at least. I wouldn't want my FH wearing his wedding ring before the wedding... it's a significant part of the ceremony and wedding, and I would feel like it lost meaning if he wore it ahead of time.

I think most wear it after the ceremony. Mine is already wearing his though. I guess in this day and age it is just up to personal preference.

Mine is wearing his after the ceremony.

My sisters husband was so excited that he wore his as soon as they purchased it. Most men wait until the wedding though.

Most wear it after the wedding ceremony. FH wears a claddagh as an engagement ring and will wear his wedding band for the first time at our wedding ceremony. It really depends what you two decide on!

My FH REALLY wants to wear his early, but I'm tryign to stay more traditional. I found though, that he seems really excited now that he's seen it, tried it on, but can't wear it. I think it's the anticipation of it, now that it's locked away. Some nights, we take a peak at our wedding bands when we're feeling "naughty." lol

I think it's part of the experience!

My FH tries his on now and then but puts it back nicely in the ring box. He will wear it after the ceremony, but he is itching to wear it now.

The man is not supposed to wear his ring until you put it on his finger during the ceremony!

Most do it after the ceremony

I think this depends on the couple and what they prefer! Mine is waiting until the ceremony

Definitely after the wedding

I have seen couples do both. My friend's FH is wearing his. Mine is waiting until after the ceremony.

I proposed to my H, and he was wearing his ring for months before I even had an engagement ring!

Some men seem to start wearing them right away now, but traditionally women get engagement rings that they start wearing right away. Then both the bride and groom get wedding bands on the big day.

It's a little bit of personal preference and a little bit of cultural heritage. In the United States, it is customary that the man not wear a ring until he receives it at the ceremony. However, some cultures dictate otherwise. For example, my fiancé is of Norse heritage, where it is customary for the man to receive an engagement ring as a symbol of proposal acceptance from his future bride. Therefore, I am giving my man an engagement ring and then a wedding band at the ceremony. We both like this idea as it shows the world that we are BOTH committed and sort of rejects the some what patriarchal customs that have attached themselves to marriage. He is Norse and I am Celtic; therefore, we're both descended from cultures that place strong emphasis on equality within the marriage.
