Frequently asked questions about wedding insurance

Wedding insurance is a type of insurance policy that provides financial protection for any potential losses on your wedding day. This would include pre-paid deposits and additional costs should something go wrong in the lead-up to, and on your wedding day. Wedding insurance is designed to help bring peace of mind to your special day, allowing you to focus on your friends and family.

Your level of cover depends on the amount of cover you select when purchasing your wedding insurance. A basic wedding insurance policy should cover:

• Cancellation.
• Postponement.
• Rescheduling of wedding.
• Lost, stolen or damaged wedding attire, rings and gifts.
• Supplier failure e.g. photographer, florist, bakery, DJ.
• Wedding transportation.
• Equipment hires e.g. marquee’s.

This is not an exhaustive list. And remember, the coverage of a basic wedding insurance policy will vary from one provider to another. To understand what is covered, read more about the Features.

When it comes to our wedding insurance, the level of coverage depends on what your individual needs are. In general, couples will select the level of cover based on their total wedding budget, or the amount of money they could potentially lose if the wedding had to be cancelled and rescheduled at short notice.

All our wedding insurance policies must be purchased no less than 30 days prior to your wedding day. That said, you should consider purchasing wedding insurance as soon as any deposit has been paid, or if a contract has been signed and you stand to lose money if you are forced to change your plans.

Well, you don’t need to have wedding insurance to get married, but it could provide you with significant protection should something unexpected go wrong. Your wedding day has a lot of moving parts with a huge reliance on external suppliers. We all hope that everything will go smoothly but sometimes it just doesn’t and something lets you down.

No, WedSure does not charge an excess. You pay for the policy, and that is it.

Nope, sorry about that! This will sound obvious, but it’s ideal to be certain that you want to get married first! If the wedding is cancelled due to the bride or groom getting cold feet, then you won’t be able to recoup your losses through your wedding insurance policy.

No, it doesn’t.  Wedding Insurance provides protection for your wedding day and the essential services associated around it.  If you are looking to protect your honeymoon, then you should look to purchase a travel insurance policy from a reputable insurer.

In the unfortunate event that a wedding is cancelled, it will be covered only if the cancellation is due to the specified events defined within the policy e.g. adverse weather conditions. Cancellations caused by events outside of the policy will not be covered e.g. either party changing their mind.
