A wedding ring symbolizes a couple’s eternal love and commitment to each other. In most cultures, it is usually worn on the fourth finger of the left hand.
Have you ever asked yourself why the wedding ring is worn around this particular finger?
Long ago, people believed that the wedding ring should be worn on the fourth finger because it has a vein that is directly connected to the heart.
Known as “vena amoris” or vein of love, the vein was named as such because of the connection of the left hand to the heart. Because of this, wedding etiquette experts say that the wedding ring should be worn on the fourth finger.
Interestingly, the Chinese have come up with a unique explanation as to why the wedding ring is worn on the particular finger using simple hand movements. The fascinating explanation is based on the belief that marriage is the strongest and the most important relationship in our life.
