Where would they put the wedding rings on earth ponies and pegasi?

Rings might be a mostly unicorn tradition.

You don't need jewelry to get married, obviously. The rings are just an old symbolic tradition.

But for ponies they could be earrings for all we know.

 

I saw an artist that has a headcanon that ponies actually just use a lot of options for engagement and wedding jewelry.

A ring as the pedant of a necklace was one option. Bracelets were another.

Well Earth ponies wear them on their hooves,if your going by Hearts and Hooves,and it really depends when it comes to pegasi  I saw one person have Pegasi wedding rings be earrings,you should also remember that wedding rings didn't become a item that was dictated that you HAD to get to prove your love until they started those diamonds are forever marketing ads,before then only rich people had them. Though show wise it looks like unicorns are the only ones that have actual wedding rings.

I think that the wedding ring might just be a unicorn tradition. Their horns are the only appendage which a ring could be useful for, so I'm sure the other sub-species have their own traditions for marriage.

Any Equestrian tradition of rings would have originated with Unicorns, as only they have an appendage suitable for them (barring leg rings).

 

An Earth Pony or Pegasi would have a different betrothal tradition, if they had a ring on a necklace it would most likely be due to the blending of traditions that inevitably happens when you have multiple cultures living together.

 

That means, of course, that some Unicorns would follow Earth Pony or Unicorn tradition, unless the Unicorn culture became dominant, which appears unlikely to me.

 

I can't currently think of a likely Earth Pony tradition, but I can see Pegasi not having any sort of jewellery, due to the fact that it could become a liability during flight, or become lost during such.

Yeah, this is a question I have always wanted answered...  O_o Wasn't Big Mac looking for a ring or something when he was under the love potion with Miss Cherilee. O-o 

 

unless I remembered it differently... that episode was such a long time ago.

You blow in one hoof and fingers come out the other. It might be that only Pinkie can get married in that case though.


I'm not a medical expert, psychologist, psychiatrist, teacher or love doctor. Take my words with a pinch of salt, yeah?

 

I am an experienced cook, musician and care worker though, so that's something.
