On the day - watch/engagement ring
Comments

I feel lost without a watch but I won't be wearing one on the day.
I've seen a few pics of brides wearing one, and they look odd to me. (The watches, not the brides lol!)
I'll probably give my engagement ring to my Dad to mind, then put it back on after the ceremony.Tank fly boss walk jam nitty gritty...0 -
I'm wearing my engagement ring on my right hand and swapping it over after the ceremony.
I wont be wearing my watch either. I've been so careful this Summer about taking it off in sunny weather so I dont get a strap mark. I had a really bad one last year. And actually, because I've been without it so often this Summer I've sort of got used to not wearing it. Except its sort of important for my job to know the time, so I'm forever checking my phone instead hahaWhat matters most is how well you walk through the fire0 -
I'm not sure about a watch, my engagement ring will be on my right hand next to my mum's rings until the register is signed then it will be snuggled up next to my wedding band.0

I will also be lost without a watch but I am not going to wear one, I will keep asking OH the time instead

With my engagement ring I am undecided. It won't fit above my wedding ring due to the style (it crosses over) It is also slightly too big for my finger now as we got it when I was 4 months pregnant and slightly swollen. I am either going wear it on my right hand and leave it there or just put it away back in it's box at the back of a draw. Really hate the thought of putting it away though, mainly due to the cost and I've only worn it for two years. But my parents don't even wear their wedding rings so I am not sure if it is a big deal. I am not really a ring person and my engagement ring is the only ring I have worn regulary. I might feel odd wearing a ring on each hand. Maybe I'll have a practice and see how I like wearing both.0 -
I'm having one be because I will be lost without the time! I've had this one: http://www.etsy.com/listing/53845699/what-time-is-the-wedding-beautiful-pearl
She is lovely and ships free from USA. She threw in a free pair of earrings for me too.
I'll be wearing my engagement ring on my other hand

That is lovely - how long did it take to arrive once you have ordered?
