Indemnity insurance

It'll be public indemnity, to guard against anything happening to your guests and them sueing - seems a bit off that you should provide it though? We have to provide it at ours as its not a conventional wedding venue, just a town hall, and our caterer has it so were covered. I would have thought a normal wedding venue (that has weddings all the time) would just have it as standard. I'd question them on it to be honest! It would have to be a separate policy, not connected to wedding insurance.

I think this is odd. Wedding venues should have this covered. Unless it's an unusual venue?

It is normally businesses that would have this, not individuals as far as I'm aware.

We had to make sure that the jazz band that was playing at our daughter's wedding venue had got indemnity insurance which was basically to cover any accidents involving their equipment but other than this, it was provided by the venue. They wouldn't allow the band to play until they had a copy of the insurance either and it took a bit of chasing so allow plenty of time as theirs only came through at the last minute!
