Now I am torn, originally I was going to do the whole right hand thing but now I want to incorporate that line to our ceremony!!! Thanks for sharing

I love that!!!! my problem is that, i will be having 2 wedding bands...one that will go under the Ering and one that goes over the Ering.... i think this will still work, just a little more for FI to do lol

I will be doing the same for FI. As he also has a ring on his ring finger (kinda like an Ering)...this i gave him when he popped the Q silly i know, but hes been wearing it ever since lol

"The engagement ring is a symbol of promise and intention. Now the intention is realized and the promise fulfilled. GROOM, please place the engagement ring on BRIDE’s finger over her wedding band to symbolize that the love that brought you together will always protect and sustain your marriage."

I absolutely love this wording and will be adding it to my ceremony.

When I was MOH for my sister, I kept her ring in my clutch during the ceremony, then afterwards she put it back on over top of the band. I plan on doing the same in reverse, giving my sister my ring during my cermony.
