It was believed that the gold ring symbolized everlasting love that would never tarnish, just as the metal of which it was made. Ancient Egyptian writings " by Appianus reveal that the wedding ring was worn on the third finger of the left hand because this finger was believed to be con- nected by an artery to the heart and this notion persisted for centuries. A writer in the late 17th century referred to this artery as "a vein of blood, called vena amoris, which passeth from the finger to the, heart." Curiously, in some cultures the wedding ring was worn on the third finger of the right hand. Page 24 This was the custom in England until the end of the 16th century, except for a brief period during the reign of Henry VIII when it was fashionable to wear the wedding ring upon the thumb. It is said that the marriage of Queen Mary to Philip of Spin in 1554 did much to establish the prestige of the plain gold wedding band. After much discussion as to the proper ring for the royal marriage, Mary declared that she preferred to be married with "a plain hoop of gold- like other maidens." And this preference for -the guld' -Vcrettclin-g- --ring-- --• continues today, • more than four centuries later. First in line is the bride's mother. Alongside her are the mother and father of the groom, followed by the bride and groom and maids. The bride's father is free to mingle. \ 4Y, Your Credit Union is ready to help with...
