When it comes to wearing your engagement ring and wedding band, you might wonder about the proper order and placement. While there are traditional practices, the choice ultimately depends on your personal style and what feels right for you. At A Gilded Leaf, we believe that your jewelry should be a reflection of your unique love story, and we're here to guide you through the process of wearing these cherished symbols.

Traditional Placement
The most common way to wear an engagement ring and wedding band is to place the wedding band on the ring finger first, followed by the engagement ring. This tradition stems from the belief that the wedding band should be closer to your heart, symbolizing the deep bond of marriage. This arrangement also ensures that your engagement ring doesn’t overshadow the simplicity and significance of the wedding band.

Modern Approaches
Many people today choose to wear their rings in a way that suits their personal style. Some prefer to wear their engagement ring on their right hand or switch the rings, placing the engagement ring first. This allows for versatility, especially if you have a unique engagement ring that deserves to be showcased. Others opt to stack their rings, creating a stylish and cohesive look by adding anniversary bands or other meaningful rings over time.

Alternatives to Traditional Wear
If you lead an active lifestyle or work with your hands, you might consider wearing your wedding band alone most days, reserving the engagement ring for special occasions. Some couples even choose matching wedding bands and wear them on different fingers or hands, creating a unified yet personalized look.

At A Gilded Leaf, we offer a stunning collection of engagement rings and wedding bands designed to complement each other beautifully, no matter how you choose to wear them. Explore our selection today and discover the perfect rings to symbolize your love, crafted with care, elegance, and a touch of individuality.
