Engagement ring is customarily worn on the 4th finger of the left hand as at the time being engaged and Once you’re married, tradition dictates that your engagement band be moved back to the 3rd finger on your left hand. When you do so, your wedding ring should remain closest to your heart (where your spouse placed it on your wedding day) and your engagement ring is placed next to the wedding ring. Although custom vary across the world and some women infuse their own style on the custom.

Regardless of how you choose to wear your ring, the most important thing is that both your wedding ring and engagement ring is comfortable for you and sized properly.
