Only wearing wedding band

Emly, on July 29, 2020 at 12:36 PM Posted in Married Life 0 18

Married Ladies! ... I'm just curious

Do any of y'all only wear your wedding band without your engagement ring?? Since we got married I've loved only wearing my wedding band because its so small and dainty and ads just a bit of bling rather than full out bling when i wear both my rings. Of course when we go out or when i feel like it ill wear both but most the time i just wear the one. One of my coworkers noticed i wasn't wearing my engagement ring and this sparked a conversation among the office of how weird it is that i only wear the one LOL. I don't care what other people think but I'm just I'm curious if anyone else does this??

    I am only going to be wearing my engagement ring. It is not a huge crazy bulky ring.

    I've ordered a plain band for just that. I love my engagement ring and its enhancer but don't always want to wear that much. Plus, when we travel, I prefer not to create attention to my jewelry

    That’s part of the reason why we chose a dainty engagement ring. I hope to wear it all the time although I may change my mind and just wear the wedding band 🤷‍♀️

    I'm not married yet but I don't wear my engagement ring. Instead I wear a silicone wedding band. And that's exactly all I will wear once I'm married to. I work in a food factory and all we are allowed to wear is one single plain wedding band. Other than that we aren't allowed to wear jewelry. But I don't find it weird to only wear the band, I know a lot of people who only wear the band and they don't work where I do. I do get question on why I wear a wedding band when I'm not married, I just respond with well seeing as I can't wear my engagement ring here this plain wedding band is my work engagement ring. I think the problem is that people just like to try and start drama.

    I do what you do: wear my wedding band all the time and my engagement ring only when I feel like it. It isn't that extravagant or anything, but yeah....sometimes I wanna go simple.

    I mostly just wear my wedding ring because I use my hands a lot and wash them constantly so worry about damaging my engagement ring.

    My mother only wears her wedding band most of the time. I’m getting a wedding band that can be worn by itself solely to have that option as well.

    When I go places (work, restaurants, wherever) I wear both - but if we're/I'm hanging around the house or going to his parents or whatever, I'm just as likely to wear just my wedding band. It's why I got a plain one and why I didn't get them soldered. I wanted the option to wear just one.

    Pre covid I was always wearing both, and I did for a bit when quarantine started. But, I’ve just stopped wearing both because I’ve been doing manual labor in the house and I prefer to keep it safe. My band curves with the ER, so I’m debating to buy a simple band for everyday wear, if anyone suggests a store to get it from I’d appreciate it!


    If we were in quarantine though, I’d totally wear both!

    I wear them both, but that's my preference. I had picked out my e-ring a long time ago (sheer luck that I just found it on Etsy, and couldn't get it out of my head). Basically, it's purple and I always need to be wearing purple.

    My e-ring is actually a smidge too big, so my wedding ring holds it in place (I wear my e-ring inside, which is apparently the "wrong" way?).

    I've even worn them every day during COVID, though most of them we haven't left the house. I feel more naked without them than without real pants!

    I wear both. My engagement ring is pretty modest. Wear what you want to wear! Not anyone else's business. Smiley smile

    I used to only wear my engagement ring actually. My wedding ring is too blingy for health code, as I work in the food industry. We're only really allowed one simple ring adorned with at most one jewel. But I have seniority here so I've been getting away with bending the rules by adding a tungsten carbide band to go with my simple engagement ring. I only ever bother to wear my wedding ring if I'm "going out", to like the grocery store or to the drive thru for a meal xD

    I've been wearing both and I like it so far. It feels different and I like it. I've had my wedding band for 4 years sitting in the box. So you bet I will wear it as much as I can.
