Another dense question - What's the difference between a wedding ring & an engagement ring? Do I wear the engagement ring to the ceremony? If so, what does the ring bearer carry down the isle? Does he carry just the bands? I understand that I can sauter the band & the engagement rings together after the ceremony - does this mean that during the ceremony I am wearing two rings, un-sautered? Please help
Why is it so hard to find a trilliant cut diamond in a jewelry store?

Re: [shannonj313] What's the difference in rings?

Dear What's the difference,
Your engagement ring is an optional symbol of your promise to marry. If you plan on joining the two rings together, you would give it back to your groom a few days before the wedding for the jeweler to sauter them together. You would then get both of them as your wedding ring during the ceremony.
Your ring bearer doesn't carry your rings down the aisle. The rings are just symbols--toy rings.
