how to get insurance
Most of our clients choose to purchase their event coverage from Wedsafe or Wedsure but you may take out a policy from any accredited private company or your homeowners insurance. Insurance coverage costs clients about $100-$175 for a one-day policy. We don't receive this money, it goes to the insurance provider. Proof of coverage forms should be uploaded (in pdf format) when you complete your Event Packet submission form.
