The vein on the left hand's ring finger is directly connected to the heart/is closest to the heart.
and also while touching the tips of the fingers of the left and right hand, you cannot seperate the ring finger...it signifies togetherness.
Try it...thumb to thumb, index to index, middle to ...
you can seperate the others but not the ring finger.

According to tradition, the wedding ring is worn on the left ring finger because the vein in the left ring finger, referred to as the vena amoris was believed to be directly connected to the heart, a symbol of love.
The wedding ring on a hand of a person symbolizes the person is in husband and wife relationship. This symbol and tradition has a long far back history. It started with ancient Egyptians, seeing the circular band (today’s wedding ring) representing eternity and love, endless devotion, with no beginning and no end. Even the ring hole has the meaning of a door to events known and unknown for two committed to each other

According to Ancient Egyptians and Romans, the vein in the left ring finger was said to connect straight to the heart. So that's where they chose to wear their wedding rings. And it's been tradition ever since.
