It goes on the fourth finger of your left hand. Before medical science explored the circulatory system, it was believed that a vein ran from this finger directly to the heart - this vein is named vena amoris, Latin for 'the vein of love.'

I am not married but would like to wear my dad's wedding band on my right had. Is it ok to wear a wedding band on your right hand if you are not married?

No. Yes. It means nothing in regard to being married (in the usual sense of the word) if worn on the right hand because wedding rings are always worn on the left...except by nuns. Probably it would be apparent to most people that you are not a nun, but you may get teased about it . People often wear rings of special sentimental value on the right hand...I'd do whatever suits you best. why would you want to send out the wrong message if you are not married. Apparently now a days a married persons wears the wedding band in either hand. Better yet, if that ring has a special sentimental value, ask your dad to pass it on to you when you really actually get married.


When is a wedding band moved from the left hand to the right hand in the US for a man?

If your married then seperate/divorce then you will remove your wedding ring if you want. Some people will continue to wear their rings on their ring finger (left) but there is no moving to the right unless you just decide on your own to wear in on your right. While married you wear your wedding band on your left finger - if for some reason that relationships dissolves then you do whatever it is you want with your wedding band. There is no ritual, law or special practice of "moving" your ring in the US/CAN - (other religions or countries may practice this but I wouldn't know as I have never heard of this)
