There is nothing particularly sacred about the third finger of the left hand in halacha. It’s status as the ring finger is just a convention and a non-Jewish one at that. When Choson presents the ring under the chupah, he places it on the Kallah’s right index finger. I could see that it might be awkward to wear it there permanently.
