jsacco20 Posted January 23, 2008 #1 Share Posted January 23, 2008 Hey all, I was just thinking...We aren't having any ring bearers or flower girls, do I have the best man keep both rings in his pocket or what? I was just thinking how us girls obviously won't have any pockets, etc... should my maid of honor just hold his? What are you girls doing or have done? Thanks! ~jess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monlyba Posted January 23, 2008 #2 Share Posted January 23, 2008 yes, i would think most people in that situation would have the best man hold onto them and bring out when the time comes for them in the ceremony. i hadn't thought about it before reading this post, but this is probably how we'll do it. i don't think we're going to necessarily name specific bridal party members but we'll have a good friend of FI's who is there hold onto them most likely.

6rugrats Posted January 23, 2008 #3 Share Posted January 23, 2008 The ring bearer usually does not carry the real rings! The best man holds the bride's ring, and your maid/matron of honor holds the groom's. Of course, you can do it however you want; it's your wedding.

Prinycesa07 Posted January 23, 2008 #4 Share Posted January 23, 2008 I guess we will just have our best man (my brother) hold them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2007CarnivalBride Posted January 23, 2008 #5 Share Posted January 23, 2008 Our Best man held one and our Maid of Honor held the other. It was a big joke in the wedding party not to give our Best man (DH's brother) the ring till a few minuets before the wedding since he didn't want to loose it!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jsipes Posted January 24, 2008 #6 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Have the best man hold your ring, and the Maid of Honor hold his ring. Or the best man can hold both......it's no big deal who holds the rings, as long as the wedding party knows what to do in advance. Have a wonderful wedding, you are so lucky.....and special !!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

6rugrats Posted January 26, 2008 #9 Share Posted January 26, 2008 If you are the only two there, then you hold each other's ring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acanadiangirl Posted January 26, 2008 #10 Share Posted January 26, 2008 If you are the only two there, then you hold each other's ring. OH.. lol.. well, that makes it simple.. I seem to try to confuse things.. :).. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mich1121 Posted January 31, 2008 #12 Share Posted January 31, 2008 Good question... The best man for my wedding is a female and will not have pockets. My maid of honor is a female. My soon to be husband preferred his sister to be his best person and I picked a good friend. I do not trust the ring bearer to hold the rings (he is only 5). Ummm maybe I will have my brother hold them. He will be walking me down the aisle or have the groom hold them in his pocket. Good thread. I didn't think of this until now.

Sunshine1220 Posted February 10, 2008 #13 Share Posted February 10, 2008 My husband to be isn't having a best man, so we both have a daughter each from a previous marriage, so both girls who are my bridesmaids will be carrying a ring each on a cushion. We thought it would be nice to have them involved even more. Christine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsacco20 Posted February 10, 2008 Author #14 Share Posted February 10, 2008 that's so sweet :P we decided to have our best man hold both. i will be training him on "responsibility" for the next 8 months. i'm sure it will be fine as long as they are given to him right before the ceremony. lol.

Sunshine1220 Posted February 10, 2008 #15 Share Posted February 10, 2008 You need 8 months to train him? lol..... The girls will be 15 and 17 by August and I won't give them the cushions until we leave for the ceremony lol Christine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
