"Let's Walk Together Through Time" ♥ A Unique Ceremony: Exchanging Watches Instead of Rings!

Eternal love vow, exchanging rings.

The groom and bride exchange their rings in the "ring exchange" ceremony.

By placing the continuous round ring on the left hand's ring finger, which is said to be closest to the heart, they vow to have "a love that will never be interrupted" ♡

Not a ring exchange, but a "watch exchange"!

While the ring exchange has been a traditional ceremony for a long time,

"I don't plan to buy a wedding ring because I won't wear one."

"I was thinking of something other than a ring as a memento!"

"It's difficult to wear a ring because of metal allergies..."

There may be people who do not plan to prepare wedding rings.

For those who might feel this way＊

Although rare, there is an idea to prepare watches instead of rings and perform a "watch exchange" ♡

The watch exchange embodies a lovely sentiment— "Let's walk through time together from now on," making it a perfect ceremony for the start of married life.

It is also chosen by those who might feel shy about love and romance or want to incorporate a straightforward, meaningful ceremony that reflects their authenticity＊

Choosing matching watches ♡

Watches can be from any favorite brand or design, but choosing matching ones, just like wedding rings, may create even more memorable moments＊

This watch is the casually usable "KLON."

This couple reportedly used their memorable pair of watches ♡ Using a cherished watch instead of getting a new one is also wonderful.

Whether choosing from brands that make wedding rings (like Tiffany, Cartier, Bulgari, Agatha, etc.) or selecting from Japanese brands (like Seiko, Citizen, Casio), picking out matching watches seems like a fun idea too ♡

The watch exchange is also lovely ♡

A ceremony that involves "watch exchange" instead of "ring exchange."

Primarily incorporated in outdoor weddings, there have also been brides who included it in Christian ceremonies＊

Some churches may not allow anything other than rings, so be sure to check with your planner well in advance＊
