Rings for engagement for men - traditional and modern
The custom of giving a ring as part of a proposal has a rather unromantic origin: in ancient times, the ring was utilized to confirm the receipt of dowry and serve as a promise. The bride's father often gave the dowry portion to the groom if he agreed to the proposal. This tradition of engagement allowed the family of the bride's groom to prove, if there was any doubt, that she had paid the dowry in full and received the ring in exchange.
Both men and women propose to get married today, and they only need permission from their parents if the proposal is purely formal. However, the tradition of presenting a ring with the proposal has been maintained for a long time, and displays the affection and bond between two people.
