    We will both have wedding rings but it will be rare for him to wear it as in his job it's dangerous and when he isn't working he is resting lol

    I would expect him to wear it for special occasions :)

    We both have rings and he wears his but it wouldn't worry me if he didn't....

    I'd like him to wear one but in all honesty I don't think he will wear it that much, probably only when he goes out with me and I make him! He'll probably take it off at Rugby and lose it within 6 months of getting married anyway.

    He doesn't like jewellery and will probably make his finger sore by twisting it all the time because he doesn't like the feel of it, he's told me he'd rather have a 'wedding watch' but the choice is between a £200 ring or a £3,000 Omega watch, which one do you think I'll go for?!

    I wouldn't mind if H2B didn't want to wear one... As it turns out he wants to wear one so we have our rings!

    i do want him to wear one.. maybe not all the time, but def for special occasions or if we're going out etc. I know some people can't wear them for work, but surely they could have one for all the times they aren't at work?
    Now a married lady and loving it! Now..to clear that pesky mortgage! :beer:

    Yes, it is to me.

    I'll be wearing the symbol of our marriage, so why shouldn't he?!

    We got ours out yesterday and tried them on, we had a right giggle because they looked so odd lol!
