"All inclusive" home insurance policies recommended for weddings
30/03/2005
Couples planning on tying the knot have been urged today to consider taking out an "all inclusive" home insurance policy prior to the big day.
The advice follows new research revealing how the average value of wedding presents has escalated in recent times and now officially tops £1,400.
This statistic is cause for some concern according to financial experts as many couples are failing to take out appropriate cover on their matrimonial household additions.
Switching to a home contents insurance policy that automatically account for this, or one with unlimited cover, represents a simple and effective solution to this problem.
Andy Sampson, of Legal & General, commented: "With the stress of arranging everything for the 'Big Day' it helps to know that the extra insurance cover is in place to cover the wedding outfits and accessories plus all the wedding gifts future married couples may have, both before and after their wedding day.
"Couples should just check that the home contents insurance cover under their house insurance policy or their parent's house insurance, if the wedding items are being stored there instead, is adequate to cover the additional value of their wedding ensemble. This is particularly important if the couple are planning to be away on honeymoon."
