Planning a Wedding at Home? Will your Homeowners Policy cover you?

Planning a Wedding at Home? Will your Homeowners Policy cover you?

The wedding ceremony in your parent’s back yard was more beautiful than you imagined. Later in the evening, the reception is in full swing when a scream pierces the music on the temporary dance floor. One of your parents' work friends – a highly successful yoga instructor– has slipped on some spilled wine and torn all the ligaments in her knee.

She will be in a cast and unable to work for six months. She will not be able to make the $15,000 per month that she has been earning for her classes. Worse, she has no disability insurance.

Within weeks of the wedding, a lawyers letter arrives demanding compensation for lost wages due to the hosts negligently failing to clean up the wine hazard on the dance floor. The letter also demands compensation for rehab expenses.

The parents call their homeowners insurance broker only to be told that they needed to take out wedding event insurance in order to be covered. Their homeowners policy will not protect them for a wedding they host at their home. The bride’s parents are now in the awkward position of having to defend themselves from a lawsuit from their friend.

This is a difficult, pricey lesson that is better learned before there is a loss. Our experience tells us that many wedding hosts assume they are covered by their homeowners insurance policy when in fact they most likely are not. This messy scenario is easily avoided with inexpensive online wedding insurance.

If you use your home for a wedding, check your insurance policy and make sure your coverage is appropriate. If not, Front Row Insurance Brokers have created a 5-minute Online Insurance Solution!
