I wear mine on my left hand but I have 2 friends who wear their wedding bands on their left hands and then moved their e-rings over to their right hand. They are both Jewish and I was wondering if this is a religious custom or just a preference?
 
I wear mine on the left hand. Maybe their E-ring doesn''t match their w-band?
 
A lot of Europeans wear it on their right hand.
 
My original I wear on my right hand, the inherited one on my left. I guess this means i need two wedding bands? ;)
 
I''m Jewish and I wear both my engagement ring and wedding band on my left hand, so I don''t think it''s a religious custom. It''s more of a preference.
 
I wear it on my left hand. My right hand is at least a 1/2 size larger than my left. My ring is sized to fit and not spin and it''s too small for my right hand.
 
I wear my wedding and engagement rings stacked on my left hand.

Recently, I saw a group of East Indian women at a winery and they were all wearing their sets stacked on the left, but with the wedding band on the outside. I''ve seen that before of course, many people wear their rings that way, I was just surprised to see an entire group all doing it that same way. Made me wonder if that was a cultural thing, as well.
 
Musey, I''ve seen women wear their wedding bands on top of their engagement rings, too. I tried it with mine once, just to see how it looked, but I moved it back. I wear my wedding band and engagement ring on my left hand. My wedding band has a slight curve to it, and it looks kind of funny if I wear it on my own unless I spin it around so the curve faces my palm.
 
My sil did that. A big channel set diamond wedding band on her left hand, and a big 2ct diamond solitaire on the right hand. She didn''t get an e-ring before they married. I guess they lived together a number of years and just decided to tie tie the knot one day. She received the solitaire as an anniversary gift for 15 or 20 years or something.
 
Left hand.
 
I wear my wedding band and e-ring stacked on my left hand, as do my married friends.
 
Left hand. I am right handed and don''t like wearing rings on myright hand as they get in the way.
 
I wear it on my left hand but for the last few years have been ''trying it out'' on my right hand as I would prefer to wear it that way.
 
I''m a lefty.

I wear it on the left. But many jewish women I know wear it on the right. I was wondering about this too.
 
I wear mine on my left
 
I wear both of mine stacked on the left hand.
 
left for me
 
I wear my WB and E-ring on my left hand.

I leave my right hand for RHR projects.

I wear mine on the left. My wedding band is an insert ring, so kind of difficult to wear without the ering. And I''m a lefty as well, but I kind of like that I can are it whenever I use my hand! However, I had a professor in college who was very Greek and said she wore hers on he right as it was custom in the culture. Maybe some Greek people on here could tell me that''s wrong, but its just what she had said.
 
I''ve also heard from Greek friends that it is customary to wear wedding rings on the right hand (which they do).
 
I wear my e-ring on my left hand and I''ll wear my w-band the same way. But my mom wears hers on her right and she tells me all the time that I''m wearing mine wrong!
 
on the right.

my e-ring is also my wedding ring, but even if I had 1 of each I would wear them both on the right.

the reason for this is that I am Dutch, and we wear wedding bands on the left hand ONLY if you are married in the Catholic church. everyone else wears on the right. my husband is South African and for him it is traditional to wear his band on the left. so to each their own.

i wear it on my left hand...

i have known some girls who when they get engaged they wear their engagement rings on their right hands up until their weddings
 
My E-ring and, when I get it, my plain band will go on my right hand. I will also be getting a half eternity band and it will go on my right hand.
 
When I am not mad at my husband, I wear it on my left hand.

No e-ring yet, but it will go on my left hand.

I don''t know (or have never noticed) anybody wearing their set on their right hand.
 
I usually wear it on my left, but I have a vintage wedding set that I wear on my right hand half the time, so I''m doubly covered! Haha.

Sometimes I don''t like wearing the ering on top of my band, so i"ll move my ering to the right.
