A wedding ring is a circular band traditionally made of precious metals like gold, silver, or platinum. It symbolizes the commitment and love between two partners in a marriage. The ring is usually worn on the fourth finger of the left hand, often referred to as the "ring finger," based on the belief that a vein in this finger leads directly to the heart. During a wedding ceremony, the couple exchanges rings as a sign of their vows and devotion. Wedding rings can also be personalized with engravings or gemstones, making them unique to each couple. They serve as a lasting reminder of the promises made on their special day.
