This is a question for those of you who have experience with AOS interviews.

Do we need to have wedding rings for the interview? We married in the city clerk's office last October, and we're planning on a big ceremony next year -- so we don't have the rings yet. It just occurred to me that they might care at the interview. Our current financial circumstances don't really allow us to splurge on fancy rings, but we really want nice wedding rings, and also a nice wedding (hence we're putting it off until next year). I do have an engagement ring.

Do you have any advice?

I really dont think its a big deal if you have rings or not, if you dont have the money what can you do. I havent gone to an aos interview but Im sure they want more important evidence. Some people dont even believe in the ring exchanging thing, Dont worry Im sure you will be ok

I have never heard them asking to see wedding rings - they didn't ask us either. You can always buy cheap $5 rings if you feel that you need to show them rings :lol: ! No, all you need to prove marriage is the marriage certificate. good Luck

We wore the rings at the time of the interview but the IO never asked about the rings or the wedding.

I think it's important to be honest and tell the IO about your wedding plan.

Good luck

I have heard of some people who did not have rings on for their AOS interview, because they planned to have a bigger wedding later. The IO never asked about it. I'm sure you have nothing to worry about!
