My Precious

I absolutely LOVE my engagement and wedding rings.  Hubby figured it would be best if I helped him pick out the rings.  He knows me so well!  I know that the whole engagement ring concept may be a ploy by the diamond industry to increase sales.  Regardless, I love my rings.

After the wedding, many people told me that the correct order is to wear the wedding ring below the e-ring.  That way, the wedding ring is closer to your heart.  Great sentimental meaning or  just another ploy by the diamond industry?  I mean, the e-ring is usually more expensive than the wedding band, so if it were to fall off, then the more expensive stone would need to be replaced.

To avoid the risk, I wear my e-ring below my wedding band.  I feel more secure knowing that there is a potential buffer.  I rarely see people wear their e-ring closer to their heart.  But, when I do, I get a little excited.  It is good to know that I am not the only one breaking from tradition.

What order do you wear your rings?  Why?
