Getting married abroad - wedding insurance advice PLEASE

Hi

We are getting married in Naples, Italy and was wondering if anyone could give me some advice on insurance. We are going on a cruise and get married during that time on land and would like info on what types of insurance are available and where to get them from.

Thanks for reading.

    We're getting married abroad and have just taken out travel insurance and will be taking out wedding insurance once our day is confirmed. We are going to use Weddingplan as they will cover all the immediate family and my medical conditions....We're getting married in Italy too, haven't decided on which town hall but will be in or near Florence.

    It is advisable to have wedding insurance for peace of mind more than anything else. You will have cover for damage/loss to the wedding clothing etc.

    With your travel insurance make sure that you get cover for your luggage too.
