'How To’ Wear Your Wedding Rings!

Having a ring on your finger shows to the world that you have committed and promised selflessly to your partner.

 

 

So, Congratulations!

Now, you must be thinking – is there a right way for me to wear this ring? What do the other rings symbolize? Why are there so many rings? It might seem confusing at first, but don’t worry – we got you.

Let’s start from The Basics:

A ring is not only the jewelry or accessory that can adorn your finger, in fact, but each ring also carries significate meaning with different milestones. The engagement ring is different from a wedding ring in terms of design, placement, and price-point but the main difference between the two is when each ring is given to another person. Engagement is typically given at the time of proposal or when a couple decides to embark on the marriage journey and a wedding ring is commonly representing the official bond of marriage and exchanged at the wedding ceremony. The rings symbolize the union of two people.

Therefore, couples buy a matching wedding ring set to ensure the two match and look stylish when worn together. However, matching your wedding band with your spouses is not necessary. A bride can reflect her own individual styles with classic bridals, Prima bridals, 3 stone bridals, and so on, while the groom can choose from our collection of men's wedding bands without worrying about coordination with their spouse. We also think it’s amazing when both spouses choose classic bridals or wedding bands – whatever they feel fits their style is important!

In most cultures, the engagement ring and wedding rings are worn on ring finger next to your pinky finger on your left hand as it is the only finger with a vein connects to the heart (or so, Ancient Romans believed it to be!). Most of the people wear their engagement ring and wedding band next to each other, so it is completely your choice which finger you choose to wear each ring.

How To Wear Rings In And Post The Wedding Ceremony?

There really is nothing telling you that you can’t wear this differently but, in most traditions, the couples wear the wedding band “closest to their heart”, which means the rings goes on the third finger of the left hand. On actual wedding day, most brides-to-be switch their engagement ring to their right hand before walking down the aisle to say ‘I do’ so as their significant other puts on the wedding band, their finger is empty. After the wedding ceremony over, brides will move their engagement ring on top of the wedding band. Increasing in popularity in recent years, some people choose to get their engagement ring and wedding band soldered together to create a bridal set one unified piece.

There are few brides who choose to wear simple wedding rings as theywork in a job where they use their hands a lot (surgeons, physical therapist). There can be situations where a person might be afraid of loosing or damaging a diamond ring. So, they simply choose rings that does not have elevated diamonds. If you have any questions about this, reach out to us at TriJewels.com!

What about AFTER the wedding?

Anniversaries will always be a special celebration about your lasting love. Several times, it also the perfect moment to buy an anniversary. Anniversary rings like diamonds eternity bands or other gemstone eternity bands are popular gifts to mark milestones that also symbolize the unending love you share with your partner. Using different metals and gemstones, you can add to your wedding band and engagement ring with another perspective on your love.

Today more celebrities are wearing engagement rings which include Skylar Astin, Max Ehrich, Dimitri Rassam, Michael Bublé, and professional wrestler David Otunga have also sported wearing an engagement ring to show their decision to get married.

Do Men Wear Engagement Rings?

Undoubtedly yes! Although it’s usually men who propose to women in heterosexual couples, women are now proposing more! Men don’t traditionally wear engagement rings but celebrities like Ed Sheren, Michael Buble, and David Otung have made it popular to do so.It shows your commitment to marriage, just like your significant other is showing theirs. In the end, we think it’s truly up to you!

All in all, rings are a symbol of never ending love!

We truly believe that rings are the ultimate symbol of love. Wearing one, or two, or even three are great ways to show how much you love your other half. Get unique, personalized rings for you and your loved one at TriJewels.com!

How to Choose the Perfect Engagement Ring for Every Finger Type

Finding the perfect engagement ring isn’t just about the 4Cs (cut, color, clarity, and carat weight)—it’s also about how the ring looks on the hand! Just like different outfits suit different body types, certain diamond shapes and ring settings complement different finger structures.

 

Whether your partner has petite fingers, long elegant hands, or wider fingers, there’s a ring style that will flatter them best. Let’s dive into the best engagement ring styles for every hand shape.

 

 


For Small Fingers: Less is More

If your partner has petite hands, you don’t need an oversized diamond to make an impact. Instead, go for a design that enhances their delicate features.

πŸ’Ž Best Diamond Shapes: Round BrilliantOval, or Pear-shaped diamonds create an illusion of length.
πŸ’ Best Settings: Solitaire or a delicate pavé band will keep things elegant without overpowering the finger.
🚫 Avoid: Chunky bands or large halos that can overwhelm smaller hands.


For Thin Fingers: Keep it Classy & Elegant

Thin fingers naturally make diamonds look larger—so you can achieve a wow-factor without a giant stone! The goal is to find a balance that complements their slender frame.

πŸ’Ž Best Diamond Shapes: MarquiseEmerald, or Oval-cut diamonds elongate the finger and create a stunning look.
πŸ’ Best Settings: Solitaire or three-stone rings add dimension without looking too overpowering.
🚫 Avoid: Overly large stones with slim bands—this might make the ring look too heavy for the finger.


For Long Fingers: The Ultimate Ring Playground

If your partner has long, slender fingers, almost any engagement ring style will look fabulous! You have the freedom to choose from both classic and statement-making designs.

πŸ’Ž Best Diamond Shapes: PrincessAsscherCushion, or Emerald-cut diamonds offer an elegant, elongated appearance.
πŸ’ Best Settings: Halo or bold settings like tension-style rings will maximize the presence of the diamond.
🚫 Avoid: Super slim bands, as they can make long fingers look even longer than they already are.


For Wider Fingers: Make a Statement

If your partner has wider fingers, the key is to choose a design that makes the diamond the center of attention while balancing proportions.

πŸ’Ž Best Diamond Shapes: OvalEmerald, or Marquise-cut diamonds help elongate and slim the fingers.
πŸ’ Best Settings: Halo settings, split-shank bands, and vintage-inspired designs add width and make the diamond appear larger.
🚫 Avoid: Small, minimalist rings, as they can make the fingers appear wider by contrast.


Final Thoughts: The Perfect Ring Awaits!

No matter your partner’s hand shape, there’s an engagement ring that will make their heart skip a beat! At TriJewels, we offer a customizable selection of engagement rings that fit every hand type and style preference. Browse through our collection to find the one that’s just right!


FAQs: Jewelry Care & Cleaning

1. Can I use toothpaste to clean my jewelry?
No! Toothpaste is too abrasive and can scratch metals and gemstones. Stick to mild dish soap and lukewarm water for a safe and effective clean.

2. How often should I clean my jewelry?
For everyday pieces, a gentle cleaning once a week keeps them sparkling. For fine jewelry, a professional cleaning at Trijewels every 6-12 months is ideal.

3. Is it safe to wear my jewelry in the shower?
Not recommended! Soap, shampoo, and hard water can dull gemstones and weaken metal settings over time. Always remove jewelry before showering.

4. Why does my white gold jewelry look yellow over time?
White gold is coated with rhodium for its bright finish, which can wear off. A quick rhodium re-plating at Trijewels will restore its original shine!
