In the middle ages, the groom put the wedding ring on the bride's three fingers in turn, symbolizing the trinity of the father, the son and the holy spirit, and finally put the ring on the ring finger of his left hand. As a result, the ring finger of the left hand has become the traditional finger to wear wedding rings in all English-speaking countries.

The bride's father-in-law asked her to dance the second dance, and then the bride's father. Only when the groom dances with the bridesmaid can guests join in and dance as bridesmaids.
