Q. Although weddings occur throughout the year, June has traditionally been known as the month for weddings. When did rings become part of the wedding ceremony?

A. One way to answer this question is to note that “With this ring I thee wed” can be quoted as far back as the 1662 Book of Common Prayer, a prayer book of the Church of England.
