Do I Have To Get Event Insurance?

Accepted Answer

Yes, a one day wedding insurance policy is required.
 
The purpose of Wedding Liability Insurance is to protect you if you or your event
causes damage or injury. Otherwise, you may be personally responsible and nobody
wants a marriage to start out with that kind of financial burden. The simple act of
putting up lights could cause wall damage or an accidental wine spill could cause
your Aunt to take a spill and injure her wrist.
