OK here’s another thing I probably shouldn’t be worried about, but I just wondered if anyone has ideas…
I am getting married in 9 days. The best man is also serving as my stand-in “father of the bride.” We have just him and my matron of honor in our wedding party… no flower girl or ring bearer.
Does anyone have any creative ideas to help the best man carry (i.e. not lose in the depths of his pocket) our wedding rings? They are both plain white gold bands, and although it is easy to tell apart his and hers by the size… I always thinks it looks silly when the person is fumbling to find the right ring at the right time. Thank you for your suggestions 
Thanks. I am not stressing at all, honestly. I just wondered.
He is trustworthy, but he is an older gentleman. We have both known him for many, many years and consider him one of our very best friends.
I just wanted to make it easier on him and was hoping for something unique, but not cutesy. It’s not like I’m going to make him drag a ring pillow up the aisle
Thank you to those people that actually answered thoughtfully.
???????????
Get a trustworthy best man.
Pin it to his shirt.
Put a twisty-tie (like what holds the bread bag closed) on the groom’s ring.
Put them on a string round his neck!!
You really are worried for no reason. I’ve seen most best men put them on their fingers.
It’s probably not a big deal, but I think one thing you could do is have the Best Man carry the groom’s ring while the MOH could carry yours to the altar.
Or you could carry the groom’s ring and he could carry yours with him.
Whatever you decide to do, it’s not something to stress over hugely. It’ll be okay.
That’s why there is a left pocket and a right pocket. Facing the minister, his ring should be in the left and hers in the right. That way when he goes to give the ring to her for him, it’ll be easy to distinguish.
Tell him you’ll kick his butt if he loses them! That works believe me!
this is not stupid, but i think he should wear the ring, this way he will know if it falls off and then he’ll know it he has lost it , this way he wont lose it , ok, btw, have a good wedding!
Keep them in the box. Ring boxes are usually small enough to fit into his pocket.
Funny story..when my dad married his wife, my brother who was 13 at the time was his best man. They got married in a gazeebo at a park. When it was time to give my dad the ring my little brother took the ring out of his pocket and dropped it down between the boards of the gazeebo. The look on my dads wifes face was priceless. Luckily someone had a wire hanger and my boyfried at the time was able to hook the ring and save the day.
Moral of the story…keep a wire hanger handy!!!
Don’t worry the best man should be trustworty, if not why is he there. this is your day of happiness and you should not stress over it. Well not to that degree. Things will go at ease just relax, and enjoy the up coming days to the big day.
BTW: Congrats to you and your Husband
Put the rings on different fingers. Yours on his pinky and hubby’s on his index or something like that. That way he knows where they are and doesn’t have to go fumbling for it.
I was MOH a few years back and had the job of holding the rings. I just held them on one of my fingers. Nobody saw them there and they didn’t fall off or anything. Easy. Also, my bf was bestman this summer and he was holding the rings in his pocket. It did take him a few seconds to grab them out but it was actually really funny and the whole wedding party and all the guests were laughing. The bride and groom were really nervous and afterwards they said that made them feel a lot calmer!
Anyway, as long as it’s in an outside pocket, I don’t think it’ll be too much trouble.
pre ceremony you can have the rings already given to the priest. and have them up at the alter.
tie them with ribbon and a bow!
put them into a pouch
you can get them anywhere jewelry is sold or they have them at Michael’s craft store
I would either have him wear them until they are needed as he would/should know if/when they fall off or put the rings in separate pockets so he doesnt have to fumble for them…as long as he remembers which pocket he put them in
Good luck!
Keep them in the ring box in his pocket
I would give your fiance’s ring to the matron or maid of honor.
Let the best man put your ring in his inside tux jacket pocket. This is a good place because it is not as deep as the pants pockets, and not as likely to fall out or anything.
The groom usually holds onto them until right before the ceremony starts. He isn’t going to lose something in a few minutes.
