Engagement rings and wedding rings are different both in look and symbolism. Usually engagement rings are worn prior to marriage to signify one's engaged status. The most general engagement rings are diamond solitaires, though engagement rings can be any color or choice of stone depending upon taste.

Like wedding rings, engagement rings to worn on the left hand ring finger. They are purchased alone, or they may be sold as part of a set. When the person is married, the wedding ring portion of the set is added and tends to be worn under the engagement ring on the ring finger of the left hand.

Wedding rings can also be sold individually from engagement rings and may be comparatively simple in design. Simple gold or platinum bands are still quite admired for both men and women. It's a good idea to choose from engagement rings that will fit with a wedding band, or alternately to get a set if the ring has any designs that might make it incompatible with a simple band.

Some wedding rings, especially in a set can also be quite complicated. They may include diamonds or other stones that set off engagement rings wonderfully. If engagement rings have peculiarities in shape and are not sold in a set, an alternative to purchasing a band that does not equal is having one designed to fit with the engagement ring.

In additional, often engagement rings and wedding rings that are designed to go together may be welded in the back to reduce friction of the rings rubbing together. Friction will eventually wear the rings down, particularly if they are 14 karat gold or higher. Most jewelry stores can achieve this simple operation a few days before a marriage takes place so women do not have to be without their engagement rings for long.

It is commonly customary for women to wear engagement rings. There are male engagement rings however these are less common. Usually both new husband and wife will wear wedding rings. Unlike engagement rings, wedding rings are generally not worn until after a marriage has taken place. While a diamond solitaire on the left ring finger may point out a lady's gagement, a simple band worn on the left hand ring finger by either a man or a woman signifies that the person is married.
