FAQ Does home insurance cover wedding rings?

Home insurance can sometimes include engagement ring insurance or wedding ring insurance, but it may not always cover the full value of your rings. Whether your rings are fully covered depends on their price, as home insurance often has a single-item limit, which sets the maximum cost of any individual item on the policy (often between £1k and £2k).

Adding an engagement or wedding ring to your policy as a high-value item will likely increase your insurance premium. Additionally, you may need to add further cover at an extra cost if you want your items covered outside the home.

If you're unsure, it's best to check your policy documents for the exact details of what is or isn't covered. However, specialist ring insurance through Ripe is tailored specifically for wedding and engagement rings.

Types of ring insurance by Ripe

  • Engagement ring insurance

    Engagement ring insurance protects your most cherished piece of jewellery against the risks of daily wear. For example, if your engagement ring is accidentally dropped and the stone becomes loose, insurance can cover the repair costs, sparing you from unnecessary stress.

  • Wedding ring insurance

    Your wedding ring is a lasting symbol of commitment to your loved one, and protecting it provides reassurance. If it’s damaged doing everyday tasks or stolen whilst you’re on your honeymoon, wedding ring insurance means you won’t have to worry about the cost of repairing or replacing it.

  • Valuable ring insurance

    Perhaps you’ve been gifted a luxury ring or inherited a family heirloom. Specialist ring insurance also covers high-value rings that aren’t intended as engagement or wedding rings, ensuring your other sentimental pieces are protected against theft, damage, or loss.

  • It’s likely your engagement ring holds sentimental value. It often serves as a reminder of the special moment you shared with your loved one when they popped the question, so losing or damaging it can be heartbreaking. Specialist engagement ring insurance can protect your ring against theft, loss, or damage, helping you feel at ease wherever you go.

  • Yes, specialist wedding or engagement ring insurance covers the loss of your ring if it is misplaced or accidentally lost. It’s more common for rings to be lost outside of the home rather than inside, which is why insuring your ring through Ripe includes Worldwide Cover as standard. The maximum cover for a single item is £20k, with a total combined value of £30k if you have more than one item insured.

  • No, ring insurance does not usually cover damage classed as wear and tear, such as scratches. However, wedding or engagement ring insurance through Ripe does cover accidental or malicious damage for the cost of repair or replacement.

  • Yes, you can insure your ring after you've purchased it. However, it's important to remember that Loss Cover would be excluded if the item you want to insure was purchased or gifted more than 60 days ago, and you have not had it insured in the last 60 days. Your policy would still provide cover for theft and accidental damage for all items you have chosen to include.

  • Through Ripe, specialist ring insurance policies allow policyholders to redeem the agreed value of their ring following a successful claim for lost, stolen, or accidentally or maliciously damaged rings.

    Having your valuables covered to an agreed value can be more beneficial in the long run than relying on market value to cover your valuables, as you won't have to dispute the items' depreciation with your insurer should the worst happen.
