Many venues that are rented for special occasions such as weddings and graduation open houses require proof of coverage for up to $1,000,000 in liability insurance to cover property damage and bodily injury accidents that may occur during the event. Many Homeowners policies will provide coverage for these types of events. An excess / umbrella liability policy is also a good idea and will comply with the requirement for $1,000,000 in liability coverage.
If you are hosting an event where alcohol will be served, your homeowners policy will cover this “host liquor liability” as long as you do not charge money for the alcohol. If alcohol will be served it is recommended to transfer the liability by hiring a bartender or caterer who carries their own liquor liability coverage. If you do decide to have a cash bar or if the venue requires to be listed as an additional insured on your policy, we can provide you with a separate Special Event Liability policy to cover this exposure.
For specific events and how coverage would be afforded under your policy please contact us.

“Josh and the Policy People Team are incredible. Josh not only delivered above and beyond for our insurance needs, but took the intentional time to walk my wife and I through all his recommendations and reasons for them. The best part was how he did it. I always knew I could call to chat through the options, and we did before making the final decision, but he recorded a personalized video to start so we could watch it at our convenience. The video was detailed and covered all our questions before we had a chance to ask. Cheers to a long relationship with Policy People!”

“Josh and his team went ahead and found a few offers for my Business insurance from auto to workman’s comp. They were able to find us an all inclusive company with a rate that beat other insurance agencies with better coverage.
Thank you again for being so prompt and responsive to my questions and concerns.”

From completing the initial questionnaire to the incredibly detailed PERSONALIZED video explaining his recommendations and WHY, this experience has not only created a client for life, but professionally I will be recommending my clients to Josh as well!”
