Wedding Wednesday: Christie & Kevin

9/13/2015 | Martin Johnson House | Alexander Photography

At the time of their wedding sunny San Diego was particularly hot. Did that stop this rad couple from having an amazing day? No way, PARTY ON! Christie and Kevin were absolute troopers on their big day. The Hotel La Jolla is a beautiful mid-century, California surf decor venue with a very accommodating and friendly staff that was perfect for their wedding prep.

The California coast is just beautiful all up and down the Golden State and the Martin Johnson House sits on a cliff just above the ocean with scenes of the beach below, Scripps Pier and La Jolla Shores in the distance. The perfect setting for this beautiful wedding. Everything was perfect and everyone had such a great time as you can see. The images tell the rest of the story of this fun couple.

Ask Abby: Insuring Your Rings

Should we insure our wedding rings?

Long story short? Absolutely. Most homeowner's or renter's insurance has the option to add expensive items, like your wedding rings, to the policy. Another option is to get Jewelry Insurance specifically for your rings. Insuring your rings isn't nearly as expensive as most people think it's going to be. It normally costs about $1-$2 per $100 paid per year. So if your ring cost $5,000, it'll cost on average between $50-$100 to insure for one year.

Whether your ring is a family heirloom or a brand new freshly minted ring, insuring your rings will give you peace of mind. You can get your rings appraised by a certified gemologist. Then, take your time reading through your options in different policies and see what coverage is offered for various situations. From theft to a freak accident happening that damages your ring, to dropping it down the garbage disposal on accident, you need to choose the best option for you and your fiance!
