  • Start planning weddings. Wedding venues might ask you to have active insurance — usually general liability or workers’ compensation.
  • Hire employees. Most states require workers’ compensation.
  • Drive for business purposes. Business-owned vehicles typically need commercial auto insurance.
  • Repair or replace property you own or rent. Protect your inventory, equipment and even the building that you lease or own.

Frequently asked questions about business insurance

Here are some of the most common questions we get about insurance for wedding planners. If you don’t find the answers you need here, our licensed, U.S.-based insurance advisors are standing by to help via online chat or phone.

How does business insurance protect wedding planners?

Our wedding planner insurance packages are designed to protect your business from a variety of risks and help you save money to grow your business. You’ll be protected from financial losses related to:

Damage to someone’s property

You accidentally knock down an expensive chandelier while setting up lighting for a reception. The general liability coverage in your insurance package would help pay for a replacement.

Accidents that hurt someone

A client trips over the edge of a rug in your office and sprains their ankle. Your general wedding planner liability insurance coverage would also come into play here by helping to pay for medical costs and legal fees.

Professional mistakes

A client claims that you allowed the event to run late, causing them to incur extra venue fees. Professional liability insurance helps you defend yourself if you’re accused of making a mistake that causes someone to lose money.

Workplace injuries

You slip and injure your leg while showing guests a location. Workers’ compensation insurance with business owner’s coverage can help cover medical bills and lost wages. Workers’ comp is usually required by law if you have employees.

Injuries and damage involving your business vehicles

You scrape the side of another car in a florist’s parking lot. Commercial auto insurance will help pay for the repairs. This coverage is also usually required by law for business-owned vehicles.

Damage to your own property

Your office is flooded when a water pipe bursts. Commercial property insurance can help with replacement or repair costs if your owned or leased property is damaged due to a covered event, such as a burst water pipe, fire, tornado or vandalism.
