About This Quote

The wedding ring has traditionally been a symbol of marriage and family as well as life's triumphs and tragedies. The ring's significance is often tied to the couple's commitment to each other and their willingness to face up to the challenges that come with marriage and parenthood. It is a reminder of the couple's promise to stand together through good times and bad, and their willingness to confront and overcome any obstacles that may come their way.
