    Could anyone who has purchased wedding insurance or is in the process please share their insurance company?  I'm kind of at a loss with this sorta thing...

    Thanks a bunch.

    We used wedsafe. We purchased the Event Cancellation Policy. They are recommended by Suze Orman. They have a website at www.wedsafe.com

    Are you talking wedding insurance or event liability insurance? I'm getting event liability insurance for the wedding - sort of if someone gets hurt and they sue you insurance.  I have a feeling (though I haven't been told) its going to be required for the ceremony site. I'm getting that through my regular insurance company (State Farm) as an add owner to my homeowner's and it was really cheap $35 (let me know if you want the coverage amount at least $100,000 though and I know I could have gotten more).

     

    I looked at wedsafe.com for actual wedding insurance that covered vendor's not showing, etc. but I decided against it.  I think it was $200-$500 depending on size, etc.   I think the wedding insurance might be valuable if you know you might have issues - military leave, sick relatives, are paying vendors large amounts.  I kinda decided that these weren't high likelihood events and while I'd be sad if the day got messed up, money wouldn't fix it too much.

    Good luck - I can't wait to see what others say.

    I called our insurance agent for our house.  Call whomever your ring is insured with (assuming it is).

    I had an inclusive policy based on the amount of the wedding.  It covered cancellations due to weather, change of heart (hee hee), vendors not showing, sickness or other reasons a close family member not being able to attend, lost gifts, clothing issues, and it also had some liability insurance added in (although I still made the one vendor that wanted it to be our responsibility waive that requirement).

    It was super inexpensive considering it covered everything, so with a winter wedding we felt it was a good deal.

    I talked to an insurance agent (a friend) who said that no policy she could have written for me would be better than what I could get from wedsafe.  We haven't gotten it yet, but will be getting wedsafe's event liablity insurance (our venue requires it).  Our homeowner's couldn't write the policy because the wedding isn't in our state.
