Along with the cost of food and fuel, weddings have now become the next most expensive undertaking, rising on average by £2,000 a year. With the outlay of many weddings now at approximately £20,000, Marks and Spencer Money are highlighting the importance of wedding insurance to ensure that the big day runs as smoothly as possible.
The intention of wedding insurance is to help recover any unexpected costs, such as red wine being spilt on a white wedding dress or the cake being damaged. Even if the whole day has to be cancelled due to ill health, or if the company holding the reception go into liquidation, the cost of the entire wedding can be redeemed if there is cover in place.
However, there are circumstances when it will not be possible to make a claim, for example the policy will not cover the bride or groom to be getting cold feet.
