Left ring finger

it would be your left hand thrid finger the ring finger.
why:
There are many theories as to why this particular finger came to symbolize marriage. Both the ancient Romans and Egyptians believed that a vein - called the vena amoris in Latin - ran directly from that finger to the heart.
In medieval England, a bridegroom would slide the ring part way up his bride's thumb, index and middle finger, saying "In the name of the father, the son, and the holy ghost" as he passed each one. He then put the ring on the next available finger - the third finger of the left hand. This practice was finally formalized in the 1500's when Henry VIII's son authored The Book of Common Prayer, which gives English modern Protestant wedding vows and decrees on which finger our wedding rings should go.
one more fact :
Most people wear the wedding band on the left hand. However, some European women wear the ring on their right hand. Some Scandinavian women wear three rings, one each for
engagement
marriage
motherhood.
Jewish brides have the ring placed on their index finger, since that is the finger with which they point to the Torah as they read. Early
i hope this help congrads

Left ring finger (next to pinky finger). Once married, the wedding ring goes on first, with the engagement ring going on next.

It is said the third finger on your left hand has a direct line to your heart. I once say a lady who had her wedding ring on her right hand. I started to ask why until I saw she had no left hand. Wow, did I ever feel stupid.

I wear mine on the right hand. My husband is from a country in Eastern Europe, it is their tradition there, and he asked that I do that. It's actually been nice to be different....
