Popular Ceremony Performance "Ring Relay"*
Recently, the "Ring Relay" is a highly popular performance at weddings*
A Ring Relay is a performance in which the guests pass the couple's wedding rings on a single ribbon in a relay format♩
It is a wonderful performance that allows the guests to deliver the wedding rings, which are a symbol of eternal love, making the wedding memorable*
There are several ways to conduct a ring relay, and we will introduce them here♩
Method 1 of the Ring Relay: Have All Guests Participate
The first method we introduce is for all guests to participate in the ring relay* The charm of this method is that it allows the couple to vow eternal love with rings that have passed through the hands of all the guests♡
However, since it involves passing through all guests, it can take some time, which is a drawback.
This method is recommended for brides having a small wedding with fewer than 30 guests*
Method 2 of the Ring Relay: Have Guests Sitting Inside the Aisle Participate
The next method we introduce is to have guests sitting inside the aisle participate in the ring relay.
Although the rings do not pass through the hands of all guests, the performance can proceed smoothly and quickly.
It might be a good idea to designate the seats of the guests you would like to ask in advance◎
Method 3 of the Ring Relay: Have Guests Stand Up to Participate
This bride requested all the guests to form a circle at the chapel on the observation deck to perform the ring relay*
While sitting down can make the ring relay take some time, standing allows for a more fluid execution♩
Next, we will introduce some tips for the ring relay*
Tip 1 for the Ring Relay: Attach Something to the Ring
The first tip we present is to attach something to the ring*
Because the ring relay only involves threading the wedding rings on a ribbon, it can be difficult to see what's happening from afar.
While it would be wonderful if you could involve all guests, if you are only asking those seated inside the aisle, those sitting outside may not clearly see what is happening or where the rings are, so it’s recommended to add some creativity to the rings.

A large ring pillow will be visible even from a distance◎
Other brides have attached balloons or bells to the rings*
Attaching balloons makes it easy to see where the rings are, and having bells adds a lovely sound♩
Tip 2 for the Ring Relay: Make the Ribbon a Little Longer
When conducting a ring relay, it's recommended to prepare a ribbon of ample length*
If the ribbon is too short, it may not reach the couple, or you may need to tie additional ribbons together.
Using a single ribbon for the ring relay makes it look better, so it's reassuring to have a length of about twice the distance the rings need to be moved◎
On the day of the event, if it turns out to be too long, you can ask the planner to trim it quietly♩
Tip 3 for the Ring Relay: Explain the Ring Relay to the Guests
The last tip we present is to ensure that guests are properly introduced to the ring relay before it begins!
Since the ring relay is still a relatively new performance, most guests are likely unfamiliar with it. Therefore, if the ring relay begins suddenly, guests will find themselves confused, wondering, “What’s happening??”><
To avoid this, have the host explain the ring relay before the ceremony begins, or consider including an explanation in a profile book in advance♩
However, it does not have to be the couple's parents. It is also recommended to have someone who has supported you or played a Cupid role deliver the rings at the end♡
