I didn't have a wedding ring (as I didn't have a wedding!) but my symbol-of-partnership (a beautiful gold collar) was removed whenever I bathed or went swimming and for some medical reasons, testing/scanning, surgery, so on. It was also off for a considerable amount of time when some size adjustments were made. I don't believe that brought on bad luck of any sort. It is what it is.. a symbol, if it's a ring around your finger or neck.
When I lost my partner, because I did not have the means to remove it, I had it cut off, on either side of the closing mechanism, and kept all the parts in a box.
