Maybe if they were your own rings you'd feel differently, but to me this makes it more about the items than the wearing.

We were playing Guitar Hero on one guitar controller and our photographer friend took one of our hands on the keys with the rings showing. Extremely cheesy but totally us. <3 (Here http://irc-galleria.net/view.php?nick=mei-chan&image_id=71093534 if you're curious.)

Because our photographer wasn't really about posing very much (probably because we weren't), when he said, "Show me your rings!" he wasn't asking for a specific pose... And what happened was we both held out our hands, palms towards us, in an almost defiant posture. You can almost hear the "Hah! See?" in our body language. The crossed hands on the marriage certificate? Not so much. Our ring photos are on the front page of our album.

My wedding photographer has a thing for taking photos of the bride's shoes, which in the hands of someone with less talent, could be a nightmare. (I'll link one, but am not sure if it'll show up properly or not, where it's from his Facebook page.) http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=2032616&id=541314488 In the hands of a talented, creative, artistic photographer with good taste, it's impossible to be cheesy.

I think ring shots can get cheesy depending on how they are done. Personally, I love the one in your post, but I have seen plenty others that I do not. I am definitely not a fan of putting the couple in a lovely pose and then positioning their hands awkwardly just to see the rings. it makes the shot so fake. It really depends for me.
