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

I personally don’t like when men wear their wedding ring or “engagement ring” before the ceremony. It’s as if they need to prove their love with jewelry instead of with love. It’s weird. Sorry for my harsh opinion

View Quoted Comment No luck involved. Simply that wearing a wedding band, received at the wedding from your spouse, means you are married, always has. If you give FI another one, a symbol of the promise to marry, like the engagement ring you receive from him, that he may wear when he gets it. It may be something worn later on the other hand from the wedding ring, because men's rings are bulkier. And a decorative Promise ring and a band often cannot be paired. I gave my then FI an inset tiger eye ring, which he wears on his other ring finger from his wedding band. Where I have a decorative band ( no stone) that was my engagement ring that I swapped to tge other hand and added a wedding band to when we married. By a month after getting engaged, we each had an engagement ring. But that is not traditional American culture, where mostly men give their girlfriends rings for going steady, or promise rings when committed to each other, but not engaged, or engagement rings when engaged. And men get ... nothing. Some of us come from cultures where the couple exchange objects, not necessarily rings, at engagement. My new FI was pretty surprised I got him one. At my wedding, I carried a little bag of mementoes of family, not a bouquet. And included were the carved ivory pendant my grandmother gave my grandfather to take to sea and always come back to her, at engagement, and he carved symbols of their names joined together in a ring of polished mother of pearl. It is lavendar, and I am told, jade, the carved portion. A pendant worn clise to tge heart, not a ring, was the engagement exchange.
If you want to get an engagement ring or other token of love and promise, for your honey, that is what he would wear til wedding day. Then, the wedding band. ( in addition). I have never understood the 1 way, guy to girl, engagement ring. Never seemed fair.

View Quoted Comment What do you call a woman's wearing an engagement ring? THAT is a guy having to prove his love with jewelry. Because he is expected to get it and give an engagement ring to her, but she is not expected to give him anything. Maybe the guy wears the wedding ring early because he wants a visible symbol, I am committed to you, same as most women want. In the days when men earned money and women lived at home til marriage most often, no money, maybe it was understandable for groom to buy something and bride not to. But with most women and most men working, why shouldn't men get a gift from their fiance, why so one sided? Maybe women should stop supporting such inequality, and not expect a ring or other token from their fiance unless they intend to give something. Maybe you should save the harsh opinion ( as you call it) for the women who expect to be given the visible jewlry token, and but give nothing in return.

Definitely after the ceremony. in my opinion, its slightly weird for a man to wear his band unless already married. women wear their engagement rings and do not wear the wedding band until the actual wedding, so a man would typically wait to wear his wedding band until the ceremony where the two become married, where the band signifies that marriage.

I think most wait until the wedding. My husband didn’t even buy his ring until very close to the wedding. I rarely have seen it worn during the engagement

Mine is wearing his after we are married but I always wondered this too!

My fiancé is waiting until we are married to wear his ring. Once we exchange rings during the ceremony, that’s when he will wear his!

My Fiance bought me a silicone ring and I put it on and it felt super weird because I have never worn a ring in my life so I kind of want to wear it to get used to wearing a ring. I just dont know if its socially acceptable lol. It is not the actual wedding ring just a 20 dollar silicone ring.

Can you LIKE a comment on here lol because I was thinking the same thing!

I got my fiance an engagement ring a week after we got engaged. He wears it every day. The wedding is 9/2021

After the wedding, I would personally find it weird to wear it beforehand

Seems inequal that a women would have to wear a ring to show they are taken but the man wears nothing? I think the groom should wear some sort of ring or use the wedding band as an engagement ring to show they are committed imo. Seems weird that it's one-sided and I'm a girl. I expect my man to show that he's engaged. I don't believe in this "bad luck" nonsense.

After the wedding ceremony

I’ve noticed men don’t wear their rings

View Quoted Comment I love that he was so excited!!
