I Do(omed)


If ever there was a story to highlight the importance of taking out Wedding Insurance, then this is it!

Kenneth & Karen Porter spent more than a year planning their big day which eventually went out without a hitch but not before:

  • The groom's trousers were made in the wrong size
  • The wedding dress shop supplying the bridesmaid dresses went into liquidation
  • The airline and travel agent they used to book their honeymoon closed down
  • The wedding reception venue went into administration 10 days before the big day

And to top it all off the couple had splashed out on a pair of tickets to see Michael Jackson in concert.

Phew - I think even the most laid back of Brides to be would have reaching for the bach flower remedy on this occasion.

Thankfully - they did manage to find alternatives and even had some good luck along the way when the bridal shop where Karen bought her wedding dress was broken into but her dress remained untouched.

So please, if there is one thing that goes at the top of your wedding budget list - let it be Wedding Insurance - it doesn't cost much but can save you a whole lot of cash and headache should the need arise which hopefully it wont!

Mrs2Be recommends E&L Wedding Insurance who are offering a 25% discount if you buy online!
