I think the purpose of a wedding ring is to signal to other people that you are taken.

The reason is that the ring is round and never ending with no start and no end like there love.

Because the engagement ring is traditionally the flashier and more extravagant ring of the two, most women wear the engagement ring on their left hand ring fingers. Many women will wear their wedding bands stacked underneath the engagement ring as well, while some women choose to only wear one ring to represent both. Many jewelers sell engagement rings and wedding rings as a set so that they match one another and look stylish when worn together. However, this is absolutely not a requirement and you and your partner can choose to buy wedding bands at your own leisure if you wish to have them at all.

Men typically receive wedding bands on the day of their wedding ceremonies. These grooms wedding bands are generally thicker in width than bridal wedding bands and are usually made of one type of precious metal, such as gold, silver or platinum. Some men's wedding bands may contain small diamonds or jewels and the design and style of the band is up to their personal preference.

Your engagement ring goes on the left hand ring finger, then at the wedding you move it to the right hand so your wedding ring can be placed on this finger and move it back later.

Since when did it become a tradition for the parents of the groom to pay for the bride's engagement and wedding ring?

It is not a Western tradition for the parents of the groom to buy the bride's engagement or wedding ring. Your son would buy the engagement ring and wedding ring generally as a set. He can either take his fiance into a jewelry store and let her pick out the ring or, he could choose an engagement ring (along with a wedding ring) and take a chance she will like it.
