Special Event: $1000's, Peace of Mind: Priceless!
Special Event Insurance
Your special day is on the way.... logistical, emotional and financial resources can be stretched to their limits while planning your once-in-a-lifetime event. The stakes are high and each decision can be fraught with stress as you consider all of the uncontrollable "what ifs?" Your worry may prevent you from enjoying the planning process and/or even the special event itself! "What if" there was a way to help reduce some of the financial risks? Good news, there is, and we can help with that!

Special Event Insurance

Often referred to as "wedding" insurance, special event insurance can be used to cover a 50th anniversary party, a bar mitzvah, a graduation party or any special occasion you might be planning. Not limited to private events, we also insure Fairs, Festivals, Regattas, Auctions, Fundraisers, Exhibits and even Parades! Special event insurance is designed to provide financial protection if you have to cancel or postpone a gathering due to adverse weather and natural disasters such as hurricanes.

Most policies also provide coverage for cancellation due to the death, illness or serious injury of a key participant in the event, such as members of the immediate family. Also, if an officiant, such as a minister or rabbi, or a key vendor, like the caterer, florist or photographer, does not show up, you can recover some of the costs.

 

Additional riders may include coverage for:

  • Military service, if the bride or groom is called to duty.
  • Gowns and tuxedos including stores going out of business.
  • Gifts not covered by your homeowners insurance
  • Honeymoon, if you must cancel your trip
  • Liability insurance, if you are hosting the event at home

Sky Watch: August 2015
Perseid Meteor ShowerThe thin crescent moon will be no match for the peaking Perseids Meteor Shower on the evening of August 12 when up to 60 meteors per hour will radiate from the constellation Perseus. Optimal viewing will be from a dark location after midnight. The new moon on the evening of August 14 will be located on the same side of the Earth as the Sun and will therefore not be visible in the night sky. Conversely on August 29, the Full "Supermoon" will be located on the opposite side of the Earth as the Sun. At its closest approach to earth, with its face fully illuminated, the moon will appear 16% larger and 30% brighter than usual.
