BriteCo CEO Dustin Lemick has seen this trend firsthand, with more couples prioritizing practicality over surprise. It’s a shift toward a more collaborative approach to proposals—but does it take away the magic? What do you think—should the ring come before the proposal, or is the element of surprise still key?

    💡 Most people hate insurance... But what if insurance could be better? At BriteCo, we asked ourselves the question: What would jewelry and watch insurance look like if it was built for the modern customer — not the customer of 50 years ago? The answer? ✅ Instant online quotes and purchases, in under 60 seconds ✅ Efficient and streamlined underwriting to ensure the best pricing ✅ Embedded coverage that jewelers can offer directly to their customers, right at the point of sale ✅ Automatic pricing updates for inflation and market value shifts In an industry known for being slow to change, innovation isn’t just important — it’s essential for survival. Why? Because today’s customers expect digital convenience, transparency, and speed. They don’t want paperwork. They want protection, now. That’s why BriteCo built its platform to work seamlessly for a modern consumer. 👉 Insurance shouldn’t be a headache. It should be a helping hand — fast, fair, and designed to fit into today’s buying experience.

  • Lost, stolen, or damaged… now what? An engagement ring is more than just jewelry—it’s a symbol of love and commitment. But accidents happen, and the unexpected can strike at any time. With BriteCo, replacing your ring is fast, straightforward, and stress-free. No worries, no hassle—just the security of knowing you're covered when it matters most. Take the step to protect your most cherished piece. 💍
