Getting Engaged? Your Insurance Needs Change When You Decide to Tie the Knot


February is all about love.  In fact, it is estimated that as many as 4 million people will get engaged on Valentine’s Day!

With all of that love and wedding planning in the air, it's difficult to think about the boring parts of a marriage, but these are things that could save you money, so we want to make it easy for you.

Here are a few things you need to think about in regards to your insurance policies when you tie the knot:

1. Combine your auto insurance policies.  If you both own a vehicle, the easiest thing to do is combine your policies by adding your spouse and their vehicle to your policy.  We can take care of this in just a few minutes and save you money, too! 

2. Make sure you and your spouse are listed on every policy.  You both need to be on the homeowners or renters insurance so you can get assistance if needed. Do all of them at the same time and you won’t have to worry about it again. We would be happy to help you with this. Also, if you have your auto and homeowners (or renters) insurance with us, we can save you even more money with a multi-policy discount!

3. Schedule an overall review.  When you combine two households you will obviously have more belongings!  Speak with your SAV-ON agent and verify that you have enough content and liability insurance to cover any new assets.

4. Purchase life insurance.  It’s your honeymoon and you don’t want to think about death, but now is the time to get this very important coverage in place. It doesn’t cost much and will give you peace of mind that the person you love will be taken care of in the future if you're no longer around.  It’s really the very best gift you can give to those you love. 

The best part of this? It doesn’t have to be difficult!  In fact, one short appointment can take care of every item on the list.  Give SAV-ON a call today at 888-867-2866 to schedule a review with one of our agents.
