weddings faces a vendor cancellation.

For the fourth consecutive year, vendor failures topped wedding insurance claims in 2024 — accounting for 27% of all payouts. Photographers, caterers, florists. The most trusted vendors in your contract are the most common source of loss.

Insurance Information Institute, 2024

22%
of claims are weather-related.

Hurricanes, blizzards, wildfires — extreme weather that prevents the couple, family, or majority of guests from reaching the venue. Outdoor and destination weddings carry a 1.55× higher risk premium for a reason. The ceremony can be rescheduled. The deposits cannot be unspent.

"

Our florist went bankrupt six weeks before the ceremony. Vow's vendor failure coverage paid out $8,400 within 12 days. The wedding happened — and we didn't lose a dollar.

"I've coordinated 140 weddings. I now require every client to carry Vow Standard before we sign. It's not a suggestion — it's in my contract. One venue fire taught me that."

"My son received deployment orders eleven days before his wedding. Vow's military coverage was the only reason we didn't lose the $42,000 in deposits already paid. They answered the phone on a Sunday."

$42,000 in deposits protected
