I recently went to the Dominican Republic. I was going to leave my ring at home and wear a fake one but we rushed (left late) and I forgot to change it. I never took it off even in the water and didn't have a problem. FH wasn't too happy though but it was okay.

I plan on buying a fake ring for my HM. Check out QVC. The diamonique rings are pretty nice.
I have thought of doing this....I feel like I am cheating on my ring. But, I might be ablet o find one that looks like it.
I have gone on three major trips with my e-ring (one being my honeymoon). I have never ever left it home for any reason. IMO, there is no point to have a nice ring if you aren't going to wear it. Get the ring insured and have a nice vacation.
I've traveled with it before. When i was on a cruise i would sometimes leave it in the safe if I was going to the pool but most of the time I just kept it on.
I've traveled with mine before and I've never had an issue. It fits properly so I'm never worried about losing it. One thing I did notice was that the hand sanitizer on the cruise made my ring look tarnished. It washed right off, but I made sure to apply it around the ring. Other than that, no worries. The salt water, chlorine, nothing affected it.
I travel with mine all the time - it's insured,
i plan on wearing my e-ring & wedding band even when on vacation.

When I went to Sandals Antigua last summer, I purchased a fake engagement ring that looked exactly like my real one. I didn't want to take a chance bringing it with me.

I don't think your real ring will mind![]()

But I hear you. I would feel much worse if I lost it then if I wore a fake for a few days.
My fiance proposed to me in Costa Rica.. and the ring was a size too small.. However I got it on LOL and wore it the whole time there..for the next 6 days!!! I wore it to a waterfall.. I wore it in the hot springs, I wore it EVERYWHERE.. and it survived lol.

I lost my promise ring my FH gave me and I felt terrible. It was only $250 but the sentimental value was alot more. That's why I'm being extra careful with the ering even if it is insured. The ring was not only expensive, but the sentimental value of that particular ring is alot more. I would rather lock it up in a safe at home and wear fake rings for the HM.
I already bought a fake E-Ring...we have gone on a few trips since we have been engaged and didn't even want to take the risk of loosing it/getting stolen/etc. The fake e-ring worked perfectly and I will also be taking it on my HM
I only take mine off when it's in my cleaner. We spent a few weeks in Croatia this past summer, and I never took it off. Spent some time in the Adriatic, and it wasn't an issue - if I was going to do serious swimming, I actually put a really tight plain band ring over it that I knew wouldn't budge. But I think I only did that twice. No problems! As long as it's insured, I'd say don't worry about it...unless it's like a family heirloom that's priceless...
