Ancient Egyptians used to believe that there was a vena amoris that ran from the fourth finger of the left hand directly to the heart, so would always use this finger for wedding rings. No such vein exists, but this has not stopped people favouring this finger, though through the ages all digits (including the thumb in 17th century Europe) has been used for the wedding band...
More useless wedding trivia to come!
