HIRED EQUIPMENT COVER
What if hired equipment gets damaged?
Hire contracts usually make you responsible for damage. If something you've hired is accidentally damaged, cover is there so a damage charge from the supplier doesn't land on you.
The short answer
Does the policy cover damage to hired marquees or equipment?
Yes. Wedding Insurance AU includes cover for accidental loss or damage to hired equipment where you've accepted responsibility under a signed agreement. Marquees, tents, gazebos, staging, flooring, chairs, tables, and lighting are all included. Audio and visual entertainment equipment is excluded. Cover runs from $1,000 on Essentials to $10,000 on Premier.
