Wedding Trend: Ring Warming Ceremony

Your wedding is one of the most important events in your life. On average, you’ll spend 12-18 months planning, making sure everything is perfect, for one day. No doubt you’ve agonized over the guest list, narrowing it down and bulking it back up to ensure all the people you love most will be there; so, wouldn’t it be such a nice treat to include them in your ceremony?

A growing trend among many couples is to have a ring warming ritual as part of the ceremony. This simple gesture is a beautiful compliment to your ceremony. During the service, your rings are passed around to all of your guests. Each guest holds the rings briefly, while silently saying a blessing or wish for your union. This ritual is ideal for small ceremonies, and can be a great way to include your guests in the service.

If you like the idea of having a very interactive wedding ceremony but worry about your rings getting dropped or lost, consider placing the rings in a small bag, or tie them together with fabric. If you are having a larger ceremony, or if you just don’t like the idea of having everyone touching your rings, pass them just among your immediate family members. The passing can even take place during the vows, so that by the time you get to the ring exchange the rings will have made their way back to you.

This ceremony trend is growing in the number of couples who employ it as part of their ceremony, and can be a wonderful way to make all of your guests feel as though they’ve actively participated in your union, besides just showing up and bringing a gift. Your wedding day is your special day, and you should choose to celebrate it any way you want.
