Venue Liability Insurance-Small Vent
Tell me there are lots of you out there that have to purchase this? I'm so frustrated and don't understand why a venue can't provide it??? Looks like the cheapest we will get is $325 for the extra liability insurance. UGH I was thinking $250, so it's not that big of a difference, but at this point, every dollar counts. My mom was quoted at $350 for $1 million coverage by her insurance agent. I just had FI go down to our's, and they quoted us at $325...not sure if that's for 1 million or the minimum $300K the venue requires. Either way, I guess we just have to suck it up and pay it.
Just frustrated and of course feeling the stress of everything else. Just tell me I'm not alone with the insurance!!! lol (Yes, we did wait until the last minute on this!)

[QUOTE]For us its insurance to cover if anyone damages the venue or is hurt at the venue and its not the venues fault, for the most part.

Yep, this. I was told you could extend your homeowner's coverage to this, but it doesn't seem to work that way. I figured it wouldn't for FI and I as we are renters, and it is actually going through a different insurance company altogether (our agent does work for 3-4 different companies). My mom checked with their HO insurance and it too would be a new policy.
[QUOTE]I have never heard of this before. I doubt we need it because no one ever mentioned it, so I'm not gonna worry about it.

Yea, it was in our initial contract, so I would assume if nobody brought it up, you shouldn't worry about it. See, I kind of figured not everyone needs this, so I don't really understand why our place needs it!! I mean I kind of do, but couldn't they just charge me the extra $300 and then I wouldn't have to worry about it?! I prefer one stop shopping lol
Penny, that's a good idea...I should have thought about it before!!! It's probably too late now, considering the venue needs proof in hand within the next 9 days. Darn!
