Important before you buy
Cover designed for overseas weddings
A destination wedding is more than a holiday. It can involve travel, guests, suppliers, venues, attire, rings, photography and carefully planned arrangements.
When a wedding is held overseas, unexpected disruption can affect both your travel plans and the wedding itself. Destination Wedding optional cover is designed to provide selected benefits for eligible wedding-related events.
Whether you are planning an intimate ceremony, a resort wedding, a family celebration or a larger overseas event, it is important to consider the financial and practical risks before you travel.
Who it may suit
What Destination Wedding cover may include
Depending on the policy, selected cover may be available for certain destination wedding related events.
What it is not
Destination Wedding optional cover is not a guarantee that every wedding cost, supplier issue, change of mind or disappointment will be covered.
It does not remove the need to plan carefully, use written supplier contracts, understand local legal requirements and keep evidence of payments, bookings and arrangements.
You should read the PDS and the applicable Destination Wedding SPDS carefully before deciding whether this cover is right for you.
Why standard travel insurance may not be enough
Standard travel insurance is generally focused on travel-related events. A destination wedding can create additional wedding-specific risks.
Your wedding may involve deposits, venue costs, contracted suppliers, attire, rings, transport, flowers, cake, photography and documents that sit outside ordinary holiday costs.
That is why Destination Wedding optional cover needs to be selected if you want cover for eligible wedding-related events under the extension.
Before arranging your overseas wedding
Adding Destination Wedding cover
Destination Wedding cover is an optional extension and must be arranged before you travel.
When applying, provide details of your wedding destination, travel dates, wedding date, planned arrangements and relevant costs. You should check that the optional cover is shown on your Certificate of Insurance.
If it is not shown on your Certificate of Insurance, Destination Wedding optional cover has not been added to your policy.
