Moderators lazarus Posted October 8, 2014 Moderators Posted October 8, 2014 I've attended a bunch of weddings in the UK and performed a number too and almost all have ring for the groom. It may be that in the UK SDA church that men are more likely to have rings but I doubt that. The British aristocracy may have the tradition of bride only rings. There may be all kinds of reasons for that. There many interesting, ridiculous and sometimes inane traditions in the UK. Quote Great spirits have always found violent opposition from mediocrities. The latter cannot understand it when a man does not thoughtlessly submit to hereditary prejudices but honestly and courageously uses his intelligence. Einstein
Members rudywoofs (Pam) Posted October 8, 2014 Members Posted October 8, 2014 the article I found on British marriages states that it was only before WWII that men did not customarily wear wedding bands, but nowadays most male royals and commoners alike will wear one.... but it is still a matter of personal preference... http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-1372078/Royal-wedding-Palace-confirms-Prince-William-wont-wear-ring-marries-Kate-Middleton.html Quote Pam Meddle Not In the Affairs of Dragons; for You Are Crunchy and Taste Good with Ketchup. If we all sang the same note in the choir, there'd never be any harmony. Funny, isn't it, how we accept Grace for ourselves and demand justice for others?
