  • When I called the staff at Paul T. Murphy Insurance, they explained how auto reform would allow me to increase coverage and save money at the same time. I moved my home and umbrella insurance to my current auto carrier and saved over $350. In July 2008 when my auto insurance renews with Safety Insurance, I will save another $300 just for having my auto and home insurance with the same company. The staff at Paul T Murphy Insurance Agency really understands the new Massachusetts reform and how to pass savings and additional coverage to their clients.

  • After many years of doing business with the Paul T. Murphy Insurance Agency, I am thrilled to learn of this relationship with Northrup to service the Lynnfield area. I have trusted both my personal and business policies with Paul and have never received less than the best of service. I like the face that they service as professionals but treat you like a friend. Recently during a complicated Workers Comp claim, Paul showed up to walk me through what I thought would be a mess of paperwork and confusion – the personalized service I receive spoke volumes. I have never gotten service like that from anyone else. I also like the fact that they are always ready to save me money without ever compromising my coverage.

  • One of the best business and personal decisions I ever made was to collaborate with Paul Murphy Insurance Company for our families insurance needs. Starting with our business policies, then eventually all of our personal policies, we have slowly transitioned all to be managed by PMI. Many companies loosely tout that they treat you as one of the family; PMI proves it in their actions. We are glad we are part of their family.

Who In Massachusetts Should Purchase Wedding Liability Insurance?

Moreover, hosts don't have to live in Massachusetts to purchase wedding liability insurance for an event in the state. Out-of-state hosts who are involved in a Massachusetts wedding probably should consider purchasing a policy with someone in the state.

What Protections Are Available Through Wedding Liability Insurance Policies? 

Wedding liability insurance policies normally offer several different liability coverages. Like most liability coverages, these protections typically help pay for attorney fees, court fees and settlements that are associated with covered claims. Some of the more commonly offered wedding liability coverages are:

  • Property Damage Liability Coverage, which may cover damage to another's property
  • Bodily Injury Liability Coverage, which may cover injuries sustained by another person
  • Liquor Liability Coverage, which may cover incidents involving intoxicated persons
  • Umbrella Liability Coverage, which may give additional liability protection

Do Wedding Policies Offer Other Protections?

Some wedding policies offer other types of protections. These might be non-liability coverages such as the following:

  • Cake and Catering Coverage, which may cover the cost of finding a new cake vendor or caterer if a contracted one fails
  • Tuxedos and Gowns Coverage, which may cover the cost of replacing rented tuxes and dresses if they're damaged
  • Wedding Photographer Coverage, which may cover the cost of reassembling people for photos if the original ones don't come out
  • Military Service Coverage, which may cover lost deposits if a wedding is postponed due to one spouse being called up to active duty
