Hello all,

I have a question that I am pretty stumped on. I have worn a purity ring since I was 15 years old, after I went through a purity class and committed myself to God, my family, and myself to wait until marriage. I am getting married in December and I have thankfully made it al these years without giving up on that promis . I plan on giving my ring to my fiance on our wedding day during the ceremony. However, I have one small problem. How do I address that on the program? I thought of putting "Gifting of Purity" but it's sounded odd to me. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    IMO some of the things that have been suggested to say (if it was put in the ceremony) are pretty bad. I mean not only would they make many people uncomfortable because they might as well be saying "They haven't screwed yet, but they're gonna tonight!" but also they come off as incredibly judgmental. I'm a live and let live type and if this was in a wedding it would creep me out, yes, but I'd also be like "Whatever, their call." But some of the suggested wording just makes me feel like the vibe coming back at me is "You had sex before marriage therefore you are a dirty slut and god will get you later!" I think it would be best to do it in private to avoid all this and keep it a private and sweet moment but even in a ceremony I think there are subtler ways to handle it.
