Why choose John Lewis Wedding Insurance?

John Lewis Wedding Insurance; providing protection for civil partnerships.

Ever since the Civil Partnership Act came into being in 2004 same-sex couples have been able to formalise their relationships in the UK. Celebrating a civil partnership involves the same level of expense and emotional investment as a wedding. As such, it needs the same level of protection, which is where John Lewis Wedding Insurance can help.

Why choose John Lewis Wedding Insurance for your civil partnership?

  • The special details are all covered including your cake, flowers, rings and whatever formal attire you choose to wear for your civil partnership.
  • If the couple or members of the immediate family fall ill and the civil partnership needs to be cancelled or rearranged, we’ll cover the costs.
  • Protect your wedding wherever it's happening. We cover weddings
    in the UK and abroad    .
  • If any of the suppliers you’ve booked for your civil partnership or reception don’t turn up for whatever reason, you'll be covered for the fees and deposits you've already paid.
  • Whatever size reception you plan to celebrate your civil partnership with, our Wedding Insurance will be able to cover it. We provide flexible cover ranging from £10,000 to £50,000.
