Wedding & Special Event Insurance
What Is Special Event Insurance?
Special event insurance is insurance coverage for a wedding or other special event. Wedding insurance can help cover a broad range of risks; for instance, the photographer doesn't show up, extreme weather occurs, or the event needs to be postponed or canceled due to a covered loss.

How Do I Get Proof of Insurance for an Event?
Venues may require proof of insurance. The Travelers policy provides a Declarations Page which lists information about coverages and additional insureds. The Declarations Page may be requested to validate liability insurance. Liability insurance can help protect your interests from unfortunate mishaps such as damage to property at the event.
