Wedding Insurance

Wedding Insurance, photo 1 of 4

Wedding insurance is a liability policy that protects you, your venue, and your guests on the day of your wedding. It's easy to assume your homeowner's policy has you covered, but it won't pay a large liability claim from an event at a venue you don't own. Most venues require a dedicated policy, and we make getting it simple.

Because we partner directly with venues nationwide, the coverage you see is the coverage your venue actually requires. That means fewer wrong choices, less back-and-forth, and a certificate of insurance that lists the venue as an additional insured, which simply means the venue is also protected under your policy. Every plan includes host liquor liability, so you're covered when alcohol is served.

You buy online in a few minutes and your policy documents are delivered within 24 to 48 hours of purchase. Certificates of insurance are emailed to you and to your venue in the same window. Wedding coverage starts at $200, and higher tiers are available when a venue asks for more protection.

Protect Your Special Day with Wedding Insurance

In today's litigious culture, the risk of getting sued is around every corner. Sure, you have carefully planned every detail of your special day, right down to the last rose petal. However, you did not plan on your Uncle Harry drinking a little too much and getting into a serious automobile accident on the way home, or your best friend slipping and breaking her arm while dancing to the Love Shack.

Let's face it: accidents do and can happen. Who do you think the insurance company is going to come after to pay? Unfortunately, they come after you. So protect yourself with one of our three wedding event insurance plans. By purchasing wedding insurance from Cover My Events, you get peace of mind that if something unplanned happens, you are protected.

Wedding Insurance Myths

Myth #1

My homeowner's insurance covers me.

Truth: Most homeowner's insurance policies have limited coverage and will not provide liquor liability, property damage, or cover you for the limits your venue requires. Homeowners insurance is designed to protect homeowners, not weddings.

Myth #2

Wedding insurance is expensive.

Truth: It isn't. We offer three comprehensive options starting at $200.

Myth #3

I only need wedding insurance for one day.

Truth: Most weddings today include set-up the day before, a rehearsal dinner, the ceremony, and take-down. All of our policies cover you for three days and can include multiple locations at no additional charge, so all your plans are covered.
