Deciding on the right dress for you
It goes without saying that deciding on the right wedding dress for you is a highly personal journey and that the advice of a wedding insurance provider might seem a bit out of place when it comes to helping you find the right dress. But, here at Emerald we are here to support every part of our customers big day!
Feeling worried about your wishlist? One thing we can recommend is going into the hunt with an idea of what accessories, fit and price are flatter your needs.
Finding the dress of your dreams is definitely achievable within a budget; we have seen from former customers that additional tailoring and can prove cost effective in the long-run and still provide stunning results!
Dress preservation – avoiding hiccups before the Big Day!
Keeping your dress fresh and ready for the big day is a task that can require a lot of effort; especially if you live in a busy, family-packed home. We advise that bridal gowns are kept safe in a dress bag to prevent them from becoming folded and creased. The use of a dress bag will also prevent the dress from becoming damaged by dust, and further shield your gown from other forms of impairment (such as moth bites).
Say Yes To The Dress
Want to achieve some catharsis from the stressful endeavour that is wedding dress shopping: we can recommend Gok Wan’s ‘Say Yes To The Dress’ to take your mind off it. A heart-warming, yet rather dramatic reality TV show that depicts the emotional odyssey behind a brides purchasing of a dress.

Common Wedding Dress insurance concerns
What happens in the case where the business I have hired my ceremonial attire/ wedding dress has gone bust?
In the event that your vendor has gone bust or has been liquidised, our wedding insurance is here to protect you against such financial loss. The sizes of our insurance coverage will depend on the premium you chose to invest. Regardless, all of our available insurance offer’s a great deal of cover (ranging from a £3,000 coverage on ceremonial attire, as detailed within silver insurance, to a £18,000 cover on our supreme).
What happens if the dress is destroyed or damaged before the big day
In such an event – we are here to not only register your claim, but to listen. Naturally, policy providers will have a varying criteria for a claims journey, so it is important to check the wording of your policy of purchase. However, here at Emerald Life we offer protection in the scenario that your dress falls victim to cosmetic damages upon events that are unpredictable and out of your control.
