Awww I wanted you to throw another curve ball at me! 
The only times I’ve had my ring off in the last 23+ years have been when I was working with caustic materials or swimming.
OTOH, I would ask the concerned future bride whether she would prefer that her soon-to-be husband always wear his ring right up until the time his finger comes off?
In her job, Deb gets into caustics and other nasty stuff with her hands and I do not get upset when she removes it.
I always wear mine. I’m pretty sure my wife would be hurt if I didn’t. After all, marriage is the biggest commitment you make in your life, and the ring is a symbol of that commitment. It is not a burden to wear the ring as a sign of your commitment (barring, of course, cases where wearing the ring is dangerous due to operation of machinery, etc.).
If I was married, I wouldn’t wear a ring as long as I’m working in a lab. I probably shouldn’t even wear my watch in the lab, but the ability to trap chemicals between a ring and the skin would seem like an obvious reason not to wear a ring while in the lab. Similarly, it’s only common sense not to wear one when doing anything with machinery or anything else potentially dangerous or even when it could get wet and/or dirty, like cooking or cleaning.
Well, let’s see what I can do:
Um…are you asking how one would wear a wedding? After all, you’ve used “wedding” as a noun. (Saying “wedding ring” would be using “wedding” as an adjective.)
Enough of a curve? 
My husband is a carpenter. He doesn’t wear a wedding ring, or any jewelry for that matter. We didn’t exchange rings when we married and the only reason I eventually got one was because we moved to a podunk town where we didn’t know anyone and some of the menfolk wouldn’t take “no thanks, I’m married” for an answer. I bought one and have worn it about half of the time since then.
Married 20+ years.
Drachillix just *looks * married; everyone who knew him as a bachelor would agree.
I’m glad he wears his ring. He’s not a jewelry type of guy and I know he started wearing it to please me. He doesn’t wear any other ornamentation, not even a watch, although he has a pen drive on a lanyard around his neck.
Nerd bling!
I always wear mine. 24 hours/day. I have seen posters advising against wearing rings if you’re involved with aircraft. The thinking is that you could catch it on something as you’re falling or jumping from a ladder or whatever and have your finger degloved. I’m willing to risk it. I have seen other people wear theirs on a chain around their neck.
I am married and I take my ring off frequently when I think my hands are going to get dirty. If I am just hanging around the house, I usually don’t put it on. If I leave the house, I wear it most of the time. My wife is the same way.
Call me crazy, but in my marriage the symbol of my commitment is, well, my commitment. The fact that i’m living with, and intending to spend the rest of my life with, my wife.
I find rings annoying and uncomfortable, and have no intention of wearing the jewelry equivalent of a hair shirt just so the people i run into on the street know about my commitment to my wife. So, in answer to the OP, i don’t wear one because i don’t own one. My wife cares not a whit about my decision.
My wife wears a wedding ring, although not a standard gold band, and if she decided tomorrow not to wear it, or to move it to a different finger, it wouldn’t cause me a moment’s concern.
I can’t wear mine anymore because of arthritis. I don’t even know where it is. I used to keep it on all the time before it became too uncomfortable.
My husband wears his all the time, except at work when it could literally make him lose a finger.
I can’t wear rings, they drive me insane and always, even if they’re loose, make my finger swell up. So I wear mine on a chain around my neck.
I guess, however, I could see why someone would be upset about that; the ring is a clear sign that someone is “taken,” so that other people don’t get any ideas. Or it’s symbolic. Or some such BS. I only wear mine because it means a lot to him - I hate jewelry.

My husband doesn’t wear his to work; he used to, when we first got married, but he brought it home one day and it was covered in paint. That took some work. Since he works around paints, stains, inks, dyes, etc, he decided it would be better not to wear it. He is seen by the public daily without it on his finger. This does not bother me in the slightest.
A symbol can be broken, lost, or ruined. It is not some mystical, magical talisman that prevents my lover from straying. Love and trust are all I need. If he were to be unfaithful, no ring is going to stop it.
I always wear mine, though. I just think they’re purty.
My father always did. There was a bit of a problem once when they had to run some tests… he couldn’t take it off! The tech checked and apparently gold was OK, so they ran the tests.
Grams does.
My brother does, most of the time. His first present to his novia was to buy a pair of silver bands, which they traded for gold at the wedding. After a couple scares misplacing the gold one (he works in construction), he rescued the old silver band and now wears that one to work.
My hands seem to change size several times a day, so I rarely wear rings. I think if I ever got married the hubby and me would better look for some sort of alternative. There’s a kind of bracelets, called nomeolvides (forget me not), which are supposed to get engraved on the outside with some pretty motif or nothing and inside with the name of the person who gave it to the wearer, hence the name; perhaps one of those, engraved with wedding bands.
(Novia means something like “girlfriend with intent to marry”, the word for bride is the same, but we don’t start saying prometida until a date has been set)
Mine no longer fits, is a bitch to get resized, and looks better on a chain around my neck now (I feel very hobbity, even though it’s a three-band interlinked ring), but I wore it all the time when it still fitted. My wife wants to get me a titanium one that fits better for our next anniversary, and I’ll wear that all the time.
Neither mrAru nor I happen to own wedding rings, We had a ringless ceremony, and to totally baffle the poor justice o the peace, we asked him to omit the obey bits from the ceremony as well. It essentially became a do you love her/him, and will you stick around good/bad sort of deal.
Either you are going to be faithful or not, and no ring or oath will make any difference. I rarely obey anybody unless it is in my best interest [obeying laws keeps me out of jail, and following the rules at work keeps me employed. Boyfriends before mrAru found it impossible to order me to do anything if I didnt want to do it freely. Getting told to get me a beer without any courtesy is going to get it dumped on your head [as long as your ass isnt planted on my furniture.]
I wear mine all the time unless I have some serious handwork to do, be it gardening, vehicle maintenance, whatever. My original wedding band is on a chain around my neck; it kept breaking and the goldsmith said the metal was too brittle and it would keep recurring, so I now have a white gold band in its place. (I like white gold just for the sheer geek-cred of knowing that it can take as little as 15% of palladium in the alloy to completely efface the yellow of the gold. I also wear a yellow gold signet ring that was an 18th birthday present and it amuses me that the one that looks gold contains much less gold than the one that doesn’t.)
Indeed. If his business is one where a ring can result in a serious injury, it is best for his long term health and welfare to not get into the ring-wearing habit. All you have to do is forget to take it off one morning, and you’re in the hospital that afternoon hoping the finger can be reattached.
She needs to chill out and stop being selfish.
I wear mine all the time, even when doing home repairs, which isn’t really a good idea, but it’s hard to remember to take it off.
“Tradesman” meaning he works with his hands and machinery? Tell your freind to do a Google image serach for “degloving injury” so she can see what happens when you get a ring caught in something. Your friend probably won’t mind having her new hubby leave his ring at home when he goes to work after that.
NOTE: Images of degloving are definitely not for the squeamish.
My fiancee never wears the ring I got her except in the office and when we’re going to a “dressed up” function. She plays too many sports and it is simply not safe. I will probably only wear my wedding ring the same way. The risk of loss or damage to the ring is high given our acitvities, and the safety issue is another big deal.
Neither my husband nor my father ever have one. Neither are “jewelry” guys. It doesn’t bother me in the slightest.
My rings stay on all the time unless I clean them.
