No Ring Bearer, so who handles the rings?

Lady1722, on March 23, 2017 at 9:00 PM Posted in Planning 0 26

I don't have a ring bearer and I don't plan to have one. Has anyone else decided not to have one? Who handles your rings if you dont have one? I do plan to have a flower girl though and our best friend is marrying us. I'm thinking one of them can handle the rings. But wanted to get some input. Thank you!

    Traditionally the best man handles the actual rings, ring bearer or not. You don't trust a young child with priceless jewelry.

    Best man, for sure! We aren't having a ring bearer either, but even if we were I would want either best man or bridesmaid to hold them. You never know what little kids might do with them!

    Best man... I never understood the point of the ring bearer. What if they lose the rings?

    Best man! We are not having kids in our wedding (or reception....hopefully haha). We don't have many little kids in our family.

    Thank you!! I'm asking cause we do not know much about planning a wedding and we are keeping it simple. So our wedding party small and wasn't sure if we didn't have the traditional people, who does what instead? The best man is his brother so that works perfectly. Thanks again.

    The Maid of Honor should hold the groom's ring to hand to the Bride. By the same token the Best man holds the Bride's ring and hands it to the Groom. Best wishes!

    My 2 year old nephews are my ring bearers and no way I'd give the rings to them.
