All You Need to Know About Wedding Insurance



It is an absolute MUST to take out a wedding insurance for every couple before the big day. You may not need it at all, but if by worst luck disaster strikes, a wedding insurance can really save your day. Here are some things to know about it.

Why should I take it?

The reason is as good as why you take out a vehicle insurance, health insurance or life insurance. There probably will not be a need for cover, BUT, heaven forbid, if something catastrophic does happen on your big day, then you’ll be at ease knowing you have financial support. Weddings are one of the most expensive investments in Canada with average weddings costing over $31,000 (Huffington Post). Opt for a wedding insurance to guard your investment.

What does a wedding insurance cover?

A wedding insurance covers small things like damage to your dress, loss of wedding bands, issues with photographs, public liability claims, wedding/honeymoon cancellation due to illness/extreme weather conditions, loss of deposit, failure of suppliers and more.

Are wedding insurance policies expensive?

Not at all. Policies are available within the range of $90 to $1000 depending on the package. The fee is quite affordable and small compared to the investment in the wedding itself.

Does it cover honeymoon too?

While it covers honeymoon cancellation due to extreme weather conditions or illness, it does not take care of the honeymoon period. You should opt for a travel insurance for your honeymoon.

When should I take out a wedding insurance?

Opt in for a wedding insurance policy as soon as you set the date. Things can begin to go wrong from the moment of preparation, so it is better to have a savior to cover the loss as you work through to your big day.

Read the policy terms and coverage before you take out the right one. Most policies have at least two year coverage and that gives you ample time to plan the perfect wedding.
