Best Answer

A wedding ring is a symbol for married couples. It is believed that the ancient Egyptians were the first culture to adopt the wedding rings. They wore them on the second-to-last finger (the ring finger) on their left hand because they thought that the vein of that finger was linked to the heart. Although they were wrong about that, but the tradition remains to this day.

Because most religions and beliefs have their own opinions on which finger the ring should go on, but it is usually put on whichever finger that that religion/belief believes is connected to the heart, and love.

What you may have seen is not a wedding ring, but a ring worn by Jewish women indicating that they are engaged to be married. Like a wedding ring, it is a solid ring of precious metal.

The wedding ring goes on the left ring finger, cause that's the only finger that has a vein that goes directly to heart.

I'm curious as to why you're asking. But I wear mine on that finger because my wife died. I don't think anyone else does it for that reason, though.
