We both do. When we had them sized and when we first wore them after the wedding Benny's fit fine. Then it got cold and his ring kept falling off. We had to have it downsized again! Mine would fall off if it wasn't for the engagement ring holding it back. It spins around and often find the diamonds on my palm side. But if I went smaller then when I swell up it would be hurting.

My wife wears my mother's wedding band (I had kept it in my safe since my mother passed away) and I bought my wedding band while I was in the Philippines. I thought it would be nice that she has a ring from the US and I have a ring from the Philippines.

Mom and Dad were three months away from their 50th anniversary when she passed away, so maybe it will bring us the same happiness they shared.

We both wear wedding bands - matching Nepali filigree silver 'spin' rings we bought one day in KTM, looking madly in a dozen different shops for rings that matched and that the store had in both our sizes. Rings are actually an adopted custom in Nepal, what is more important(among Hindus anyway) is the 'mangalsutra', a gold necklace which the groom puts on the bride during the wedding - we actually exchanged rings during our engagement, not our wedding....confusing? Anyway, most Nepali women only wear the mangalsutra for special occasions and instead wear a glass bead necklace called 'pote mala' to signify that she is married, along with bangles and bindi. Yes, I wear all three. :D

"Our Wedding Prayer"

Lord,help us to remember when we first met,and the strong love that grew between us.

To work the love into practical things so nothing can divide us

Grant us a Love that grows stronger with each passing year.

We ask for words both kind and loving

and for hearts always ready to ask forgiveness as well as to forgive.

Guide us to overcome every challenge

and keep our dreams pure to each other always.

Dear Lord,we put our marriage into Your hands.Amen

If your heart acquires strength, you will be able to remove blemishes from others without thinking evil of them.

Me too - when we first got engaged I intended to never take the ring off, but since I wash my hands a lot the skin underneath got prune-y and even looked like it would crack, so I figured it was a good idea to not wear it 24-7.
