The history of wedding bands is as ever evolving as it is fascinating. Ancient Egyptians believed that the vein from the fourth ring on the left hand connected straight to the heart. Since then, the wedding band has been placed on that finger as a pledge of love and lifelong devotion. However, some cultures consider the right hand's fourth finger the "ring finger" because of the hand's use in taking up oaths and vows. The tradition of exchanging wedding bands can be traced back to 3000 years ago in ancient Rome and Greece. At that time, people used wedding bands made of bone and ivory - even leather. In Rome, wealthy people exchanged silver and gold rings, while others exchanged iron rings. Nonetheless, this began the exchange of metallic rings as a promise of love. From being part of a marital dowry to becoming a promise of fidelity, no one can deny the symbolic, cultural, and religious importance of exchanging wedding bands with the one you love.
