Wedding Insurance

WHAT IF? It’s the number one question that every couple asks themselves leading up to their big day. “What if the limo doesn’t show up?” “What if the caterers let us down?” “What if a family member falls unwell?” “What if a guest damages the marquee?”

There are any number of potential disasters when it comes to your wedding day, and whilst most events go according to plan, some unlucky couples experience the worst-case scenarios.

Imagine if you got a call from the venue a week before your wedding advising that, due to unforeseen circumstances, they have to cancel your booking! Or if you or a family member suffer injury or illness and you have to reschedule everything. If the unthinkable happens, and you lose all of your deposits and payments and have to start again, could you afford the costs of re-organising the whole event?

With the average Australian wedding costing over $35,000, more and more Aussie couples are turning to wedding insurance to eliminate the ‘what if’ factor. As well as cancellation coverage, wedding insurance provides coverage for re-scheduling, supplier failure, wedding transport, wedding attire, rings, gifts, marquee damage and public liability. Starting at just $235, wedding insurance costs just a fraction of your budget when planning your dream wedding, but it may well be the most valuable purchase that you make.

Wedding insurance can be purchased up to 18 months prior to your wedding and you can buy a policy online in just a couple of minutes. Backed by Lloyd’s of London, Dream Wedding Insurance is the Australian leader and provides coverage for weddings taking place anywhere in the world.

Your wedding will likely be one of the biggest expenses you’ll face in your lifetime… and you insure big expenses. Wedding insurance should be no less of a decision than car, home or travel insurance. When there is a risk and a considerable expense – you buy an insurance policy.

Fingers crossed, you won’t need to use it!
