Traditionally, when someone proposes marriage, they typically present an engagement ring rather than both an engagement ring and a wedding band. The engagement ring is given at the time of the proposal, symbolizing the commitment to marriage. It is worn on the ring finger of the left hand. The wedding band is exchanged during the wedding ceremony itself. Both partners typically exchange wedding bands as a symbol of their commitment to each other. The wedding band is often a simpler and more understated ring compared to the engagement ring.
