Who's holding the rings?

Rebecca, on November 6, 2018 at 11:05 AM Posted in Wedding Ceremony 0 55

We want to know who's who in your I do crew! Will you have a trusty ring bearer or a noble pet guarding the rings? Or will you entrust your rings to your second in command, like your maid of honor or best man? Are you giving your rings straight to your officiant for safekeeping? Who’s holding the rings?

    I would like for my uncle to play a role in my wedding as we are very close. I am going to have him hold the wedding rings! Smiley smile

    Definitely the best man, our ring bearer is only 5 and we don't totally trust him, lol!

    I really want to include my FFIL in some way. I recently lost my dad and this man has stepped up to the plate tremendously. So more than likely we will let him hold the rings and when the officiant asks for them he will stand up and hand them off.

    We have been debating this. I have pockets in my dress and obviously FH's tux has pockets so I think we should hold each other's rings but FH is stuck on the idea that a groomsman has to hold them.

    Most likely the best man who is FH's best friend. But the ring box and rings will be in my trusty MOH's care up until the best man carries them down the aisle Smiley xd I would be freaking out too much thinking he would forget them!

    Probably the Best Man since my son will only be 2 and probably run away with them or throw them someplace, thats if he doesn't hide them first.

    Ours will be in a LOCKED wooden box that our ring bearer will carry in (he will be handed the box right outside the church door!) and the key will be worn by my fiancee's Honor Guard Captain because she is responsible and will be at the alter already for him to hand the box off as soon as he gets up there.

    The officiant is holding them. He offered and I just don’t want our wedding party to have to worry with it

    My 10 year old nephew was one of the ring bearers and held the rings until he got to the officiant.
