About 6,000 years later, wedding rings (and ring exchange wording) are still powerful symbols of the wedding ceremony and marriage.<\/p>\n<p>In Western nations, wedding rings are made of precious metals such as gold, platinum, silver, titanium, or tungsten to symbolize the permanence of your marriage. Your ring exchange wording is what brings this symbolism to life.<\/p>\n<p>The ring exchange is the last piece of the ceremony before the big kiss. You\u2019re probably familiar with the most common ring exchange wording, \u201cWith this ring, I thee wed.\u201d Along with this ever-classic phrase, there is an array of ring exchange scripts for both religious and secular ceremonies.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ve broken down everything you need to know about this important part of the ceremony. Read on for popular ring exchange wording and non-traditional scripts. Then, choose one that speaks to you and your fianc\u00e9.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h.cjg3edn6jrsx\"><strong>Difference Between Vows and Ring Exchange Wording<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>In the movies, the big crescendo always comes moments before the bride and groom say, \u201cI do.\u201d In reality, this important phrase comes at the <a href=\"https:\/\/withjoy.com\/blog\/wedding-vows-making-promises\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">wedding vows part of your ceremony<\/a>. You can recite traditional vows or write your own.<\/p>\n<p>In a <a href=\"https:\/\/withjoy.com\/blog\/wedding-ceremony-order\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">traditional wedding ceremony order<\/a>, the vows are followed by the ring exchange. The groom usually goes first, though we invite you to be progressive. He puts the wedding band on the bride\u2019s finger while repeating a phrase like, \u201cI give this ring as a sign of my love.\u201d Then, it\u2019s the bride\u2019s turn.<\/p>\n<p>Once the rings have been exchanged, the officiant makes the declaration of marriage (\u201cI now pronounce you \u2026 \u201d). Then comes the long-anticipated first kiss and your fun-fueled reception.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h.kmipspnpdfwq\"><strong>Do I Need to Write My Own Ring Exchange Wording?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>aff<\/p>\n<p>When people talk about writing their vows, they\u2019re usually referring to the promises couples make to one another in the ceremony. You don\u2019t need to write your own ring exchange wording unless you want to. Either way, meet with your parish or officiant to ask about their script for the ring exchange.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re getting married in a church, chances are your denomination will have its own standard ring exchange wording that will involve a blessing and mention of God, but it doesn\u2019t hurt to ask for flexibility.<\/p>\n<p>Weddings by justices of the peace have less of a proscribed ring exchange wording. You can even choose to weave it into the reciting of vows.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"h.2pnmququwvb4\"><strong>Sample Ring Exchange Scripts<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-61118 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/rehearsaluploads.withjoy.com\/uploads\/uploads\/bracelets-bright-celebration-1456613-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Bright Indian celebration with henna and wedding rings\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\"><\/p>\n<p>When it\u2019s time to meet with your officiant about the ceremony and exchange of rings, it\u2019s helpful to have some bullet points in mind for what sentiments you want this to convey. To prepare, consider what religious aspects, if any, you want to incorporate, and reflect on what the rings symbolize to you.<\/p>\n<p>That said, don\u2019t stress about writing something yourself. Read on to see if any traditional or non-traditional ring exchange scripts speak to you. Also, keep in mind that your officiant will likely provide a few options to choose from.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h.oxvoq4ui667e\"><strong>Religious Ring Ceremony Wording<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>If you are planning to include spiritual elements in your ring exchange wording, here are some ideas for you to consider.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"h.7oeslwix5z77\"><strong>Anglican<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>\u201cBless, O Lord, this ring to be a sign of the vows by which this man and this woman have bound themselves to each other.

They might say something like, \u201cWear these rings as a reminder of the vows you have just taken.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>They will then instruct the bride and groom to place the ring on their partner\u2019s finger and repeat the ring exchange promises after them. Don\u2019t worry \u2014 you don\u2019t have to memorize anything.<\/p>\n<h4 id=\"h.t9y4needpxon\"><strong>Non-Denominational Ring Exchange Wording Examples<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>\u201cWith this ring, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thespruce.com\/wedding-ring-ceremony-vows-3490143\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" class=\"broken_link\">I thee wed<\/a>, and with it, I bestow upon thee all the treasures of my mind, heart, and hands.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou are more <a href=\"https:\/\/idoidos.net\/services\/custom-ceremony\/ring-vows\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" class=\"broken_link\">precious to me today<\/a>&nbsp;than yesterday, and you will be more cherished tomorrow than you are today.

Exchanging rings is a powerful way you can symbolize your unending commitment to your partner. The ring exchange is just one of many rituals you will perform. You might have a first look, you\u2019ll recite vows, you\u2019ll kiss in front of all of your loved ones, and you may even toss your bouquet into a crowd of single friends.<\/p>\n<p>The ring exchange is one of the most important of all of these traditions because it\u2019s such a powerful symbol of your everlasting devotion. With the ring exchange, you\u2019ll solidify the vows you and your fianc\u00e9 have just recited. It\u2019s the last thing you do before the officiant says the words you\u2019ve been waiting for during months of <a href=\"https:\/\/withjoy.com\/createwedding\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">wedding planning<\/a>: \u201cI now pronounce you married.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If you have a religious ceremony, the traditions are probably outlined for you, but it never hurts to ask for flexibility. If you have a secular wedding, there are plenty of ring exchange wording ideas to choose from. This can still be traditional, you can opt for something unique, or you can even write your own. Review examples with your fianc\u00e9 and your officiant, and choose something symbolic of your relationship.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Up Next:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-1 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:100%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide has-media-on-the-right reusable-feature-block has-background\" style=\"background-color:#fff9f5\"><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"wedding-website-cta\"><a href=\"https:\/\/withjoy.com\/wedding-website\/\">Create the Perfect Wedding Website<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Set up your wedding website in minutes with design options to make yours truly unique.<\/p>\n<\/div><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><a href=\"https:\/\/withjoy.com\/wedding-website\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"749\" src=\"https:\/\/withjoy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/ww-1024x749.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-75488 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/withjoy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/ww-1024x749.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/withjoy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/ww-300x219.jpg 300w, https:\/\/withjoy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/ww-768x562.jpg 768w, https:\/\/withjoy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/ww-1536x1123.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/withjoy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/ww-2048x1498.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/withjoy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/ww-1920x1404.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/withjoy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/ww-1170x856.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/withjoy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/ww-585x428.jpg 585w, https:\/\/withjoy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/ww-24x18.jpg 24w, https:\/\/withjoy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/ww-36x26.jpg 36w, https:\/\/withjoy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/ww-52x38.jpg 52w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Historians date the first wedding rings&nbsp;back to ancient Egypt, when they were considered a symbol of eternity.
