STEP #6: GIFTS ARE GIVEN TO THE BRIDE

The rite of betrothal (erusin) is completed when the groom gives something of value to the bride and she accepts it. The gift most often given today is the ring. When the groom places the ring on the bride’s finger, the rite of betrothal is completed. The gifts to the bride are symbols of love, commitment, and loyalty.
