Wedding ring sets

Wedding ring sets are a popular choice among couples

Wedding ring sets have increasingly gained popularity over the centuries. It used to be that only the bride received a wedding ring that was a symbol of the unending commitment between the couple and their respective families. It later happened that rings were brought into the Christian wedding ceremonies. The concept of exchanging rings was only about 15% in 1940 and fairly new. As World War II started the rate of couples exchanging rings when they were married rose to a whopping 60 and after the Korean War to 70%.

There are wedding ring sets that consist of two rings only, which seems to be the most popular choice. Sometimes its just bands for the bride and groom or it can be just an engagement ring and band for the bride. The rings usually are of the same design or pattern. There are other sets that consist of three rings and in this scenario there are variations as well. Three rings could be an engagement ring for the bride and bands for both bride and groom. All are usually of the same design and pattern. The other variation is a three-ring set given to the bride. An engagement ring is worn on the third finger of the left hand and the two bands are worn on either side of the engagement ring after the ceremony.

The wedding ring sets are chosen and sized. A man’s band is usually two millimeters wider than the woman’s band. The design/ pattern can be simple, ornate or something in between. The rings should be of significance to both. When my husband and I went to look for rings, I thought he was getting just the bands and I was fine with- he surprised me a beautiful solitaire diamond engagement ring. Gold was significant for both of us. There are other choices as well such as the type of metal the ring will be made of. Make your rings as special as your commitment to each other.
