Wedding Insurance FAQs

Residents of U.S. may purchase coverage. The Insured / Policyholder, Bride and Groom must be at least 18 years of age. A honoree will always be defined as an insured on the policy but may or may not be the named insured. The Named Insured can be either of the honorees or someone such as a parent or other family member that has a financial stake in the wedding.

Please note: The Wedding Protector Plan® is currently not available to residents of Alaska, Hawaii, & Louisiana.

Should you experience a covered loss, your non-recoverable costs can be as much, if not more, than the cost an automobile. The quality of your wedding day may depend upon your decision to insure against financial loss. For example, you buy insurance to provide a replacement automobile against unfortunate mishaps. Why not protect your wedding like you would your other valuable investments?
