Each coverage type plays a unique role, ensuring every part of your event (wedding, concert, trade show) is safeguarded. Here’s a breakdown of the main coverages available to help you understand the level of protection event insurance offers.
Special Wedding Coverage
Additional options can cover specific risks unique to weddings, like lost rings, damaged wedding attire, stolen gifts, or vendor no-shows. Speak with us at The Huneycutt Group to tailor your policy based on your needs.
Event Liability Coverage
Liability coverage protects you in case someone is injured or property is damaged at your event. This is particularly important if your venue requires proof of insurance.
Event Cancellation Coverage
If an unexpected situation forces you to cancel or postpone your event (such as extreme weather or illness), cancellation coverage helps reimburse non-refundable deposits and other costs.

Our experienced agents can guide you through this process to ensure you’re fully protected.
