I would like to write something like Bride-name \rings{} groom-name
in my text and wonder, if a symbol for rings already exist. Maybe somewhere around the symbols for "born" or "deceased" or other formal symbols such a two-rings symbol exist.
I am looking for two rings, horizontally aligned and intersecting each other. I guess, a knot-like behaviour as seen here would be nice, in order to distinguish it from \infty
or similar.
Here is some code to play around with. I tried using the Olympic rings, but failed. But I guess, someone knows a symbol which is already written.

Here is a tikz implementation which draws two interlocked rings. I defined a macro
\married
to simplify its insertion at the appropiate place.Used as in:
When inserted in your document, which uses special fonts and background color, it results in:
You can play with the
scale
option to increase or reduce the size, and with thebaseline
option to adjust the vertical alignment. Of course you can change colors too:
