Signs of Marriage in a Coffee Cup: Heart and Ring

A ring is the classic sign of engagement or marriage in a coffee cup. A closed, clear ring is read as a firm promise, a broken or open ring as plans that are not settled yet. A heart next to a ring is one of the strongest signs of a wedding many readers know.

Other signs readers link to marriage include a bell, a crown, two figures side by side and a table or house near the handle. One sign alone is read gently; several together strengthen the message.

A ring near the rim is read as close, sometimes a proposal soon. At the bottom it is a wish for marriage that takes longer to come true.
