    Not in Scotland!

    I could register my home for weddings, but it has to have a suitable room and would then have to be available to anyone for three years.

    However, you can have a non-official ceremony anywhere you like.
    No, the field is not part of my property or business. At the moment, it's not even rented, it's just an informal arrangement.

    Anyway, I have after several hours and many phone calls found a company to insure the wedding, minus the public liability and personal accident: my-weddinginsurance.co.uk
    I also found a company that will cover the public liability only: Insuremyevent.co.uk

    Let's hope neither the bride nor groom end up in hospital the day of the wedding.... I wonder if travel insurance would cover it - UK break, more than 3 nights?

    Have you any idea how much it costs to register your home to carry out marriages in it.


    So its not a Wedding/marriage 'as such, its a ceremony of sorts so why do you need insurance....
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.

    £1600 where I live.

    I need insurance because it will cover loss of or damage to the wedding dress and other clothes, gifts, rings, and more from now until the day of the wedding and the day of the reception, supplier failure ( bankruptcy/double booking/not turning up), supplier deposits paid in advance if disaster strikes, Also public liability insurance in case someone trips on a tussock, breaks their ankle, and sues me for loss of earnings, or falls in the stream and drowns, or get electrocuted by the fairy lights.And more.
