I am answering this not from a legal point but from what I a male/gentleman perspective. If an engagement ring was given to a lady, that will be forever hers to do with as she pleases, regardless of what happens after the giving of the ring. I man should not ask for it back, however he should it accept it back only if first offered to him. The world of engagement traditions are covered in summary form at www.diamondseverlasting.com and unlike many of the other clear cut traditions, the question posed here is less common and hope my guidance assists
whoever brought the ring should get it back .
yes
I don't think it will be stated in the State law, but traditionally, engagement ring is a promise for wedding. If any party breaks the promise, the engagement ring shall be given back.
No, there is no law (in the US) requiring that she give back the wedding and engagement ring. Totally correct because the rings are considered a GIFT.
Yes, so that the wedding band can be placed closest to the heart. 2. The engagement ring during the ceremony is placed on the brides right finger. Once the wedding band is given the bride then moves the engagement ring back to the left
Your engagement ring goes on the left hand ring finger, then at the wedding you move it to the right hand so your wedding ring can be placed on this finger and move it back later. You can buy engagement and wedding rings that match, but if you have a very fancy engagement ring it is better to have a plain wedding ring.
Typically, an engagement ring is considered a gift. However, if the recipient of the ring breaks off the engagement the ring is usually returned. If the giver of the ring breaks off the engagement the ring is usually not returned and considered a form of apology.
Yes, some European countries can do this and the young woman puts it on her finger on her right hand and when they get married it can either stay there (the groom will have the ring back and put it on her finger in the church) or she can move it to her finger on the left hand.
I think it depends on design of the Bridal Set. Because when I was searching a bridal set for my wife before our marriage. I saw some designs in which Wedding Band comes in front and in some at back of Engagement Ring.
Once you're married, tradition dictates that your engagement band be moved back to the third finger on your left hand. When you do so, your wedding ring should remain closest to your heart (where your spouse placed it on your wedding day) and your engagement ring is placed next to the wedding ring.
Do get get your engagement ring back if there is no longer an engagement live California
Why would the state matter? You gave the ring to her as a gift. No, you shouldn't expect it back.http://site1.wikianswers.com/images/blank.gif?v=33248 Actually, you should abosolutely expect it back. The ring is not a gift, but given "in consideration" as part of the contract for marriage. If the marriage was never entered into (regardless of which party broke the engagement) the contract is void and the ring should be returned.
