Insuring Your Hen or Stag Weekend

Marco Walker explains why you should seriously consider insuring your hen or stag weekend and what you'll be covered for.

Let’s paint a picture here. You have booked your stag do or hen party and you have gone out and bought your fancy dress outfits, arranged transport to get there and put aside enough money for food and booze.

The contemplation of actually buying insurance for your hen or stag weekend away may seem a little over the top, especially if you are staying in the UK, but what happens if at the last minute something dreadful happens and you cannot make the weekend?

Cancelation insurance is there to protect your money so if you cannot make your weekend away due to a problem beyond your control, insurance companies will usually refund your money.

You cannot predict the future so why not insure against it. Here at DesignaVenture we have a motto, which is “never leave anything to chance”.

A full comprehensive insurance not only covers cancelation, it can also cover you for:

• Medical emergencies (emergency medical treatment and emergency transport home)
• Theft or loss of personal possessions
• Legal costs associated with accidents or injuries
• Personal liability in the event that you injure someone
• Personal accident cover if you are injured

Most insurers won’t cover you for:

• If a war breaks out (although some cover terrorist attacks)
• Interruption or cancelation of trip due to business or contractual commitments
• Self inflicted injuries
• Mental or nervous disorders

DesignaVenture doesn’t actually sell insurance however we do sell the benefit of having it.
