PLANNING RISKS

What are the risks of an outdoor wedding?

An outdoor wedding is beautiful and exposed. Weather and hired equipment are the two biggest risks, and both are covered, within limits worth understanding.

Planning risks

What's the main risk with an outdoor wedding?

Weather. A severe storm, a heatwave, a bushfire warning, or a marquee straining in the wind. If severe weather or a natural catastrophe forces a cancellation, that's a covered reason under cancellation cover, provided the weather wasn't already publicly forecast when you bought.

Is the marquee and hired equipment covered?

Yes, separately. Accidental damage to a hired marquee, staging, flooring, lighting, or furniture you're contracted for is covered under the hired-equipment section, up to the tier limit. Hired equipment cover →

Supplier timing

How do you reduce outdoor-wedding risk?

A specific Plan B that fits your guests, vendors briefed on it, the Bureau of Meteorology's outlook checked for your date, and cover in place early, before any warnings are public. Weather cover →
