Wedding Insurance for Destination Wedding Insurance: What You Need to Know
Dreaming of a beachside “I do” in Santorini or a castle ceremony in Tuscany? Destination weddings are a growing trend, with over 25% of UK couples tying the knot abroad. But with the extra magic comes extra risk. At iDoinsurance.co.uk, we’ve got UK residents covered—here’s what you need to know about insuring your overseas wedding.
Why Destination Weddings Need Special Coverage
A wedding abroad adds layers of complexity: international suppliers, travel logistics, and foreign regulations. Standard venue insurance might not cut it. That’s where we come in, offering protection tailored for UK residents, whether you’re marrying in Bali or Barcelona.
What iDoinsurance Covers
Our eight plans include:
Cancellation: Covers costs if travel bans, illness, or venue issues derail your plans.
Supplier Failure: Protects against overseas vendors going AWOL.
Attire and Gifts: Ensures your dress or rings aren’t lost in transit.
Planning during uncertain times? Add our optional coronavirus cover for extra security.
Tips for Insuring Your Destination Wedding
Check Local Risks: Research weather patterns or political stability at your location.
Vet Suppliers: Use reputable international vendors and confirm their contracts.
Plan Early: Buy insurance as soon as you book—our policies cover you up to 24 months ahead.
Coordinate with Travel Insurance: Wedding insurance doesn’t cover flights, so pair it with a travel policy.
A Real Example
Meet Claire and Mark, who planned a wedding in Spain. When their venue double-booked, they faced a £6,000 loss. Luckily, their iDoinsurance policy covered cancellation costs, letting them rebook without stress.
