Wedding rings are an integral part of any wedding and in the western culture, losing one's wedding ring is considered very bad omen since it supposedly brings one bad luck in the marriage as well anything related to it, like proving the legality of the marriage, etc.
But have you ever wondered where might this tradition have started and why? It is sometime during 4800 BC, that in ancient Egypt, both men and women would twist plants such as hemp, reed weeds, etc and tie in on their fingers as a symbol of all the unknown future events that they, as a couple , would encounter together.
Today, men prefer to have a titanium or a cobalt ring that would remind them of their loved ones and also act as a status symbol since it is believed that the costlier the ring, the wealthier is your partner.
