Planning an event or wedding is exciting. However, one of the biggest concerns is protection from the unforeseen. That’s where event insurance comes in. Here we compare two popular options: eWed vs. Eventsured.
In short, we were quite disappointed with both insurers, especially for how established they are, and both ranked below average/average in our 2025 rankings.
Coverage Options eWed vs Eventsured
When it comes to event insurance, both eWed vs. Eventsured offer liability coverage, while eWed also provides the option for cancellation insurance.
Liability Insurance
eWed (Eventsguardian ranking: 2.5 out of 5 stars):
- $0 deductibles
- Higher limits available ($2M/$3M)
Eventsured (Eventsguardian ranking 2 out of 5 stars):
- 20 years in business
- Sample policy is easy to find
- Decent user experience on both desktop and mobile
Ease of Use
eWed:
- Not great, especially on mobile (doesn’t even load on Brave)
Eventsured:
- Not the best we saw, but also not the worst
- Price updates in real time, which is nice
Pricing
In short, there are more affordable options.
- eWed’s liability coverage starts at $125
- Eventsured’s prices start at $120
Both prices above are for $1M/$2M (occurrence/aggregate) general liability limits without the Waiver of Subrogation and Primary Noncontributory endorsements.
eWed vs Eventsured: Which One Should You Choose?
Choosing between eWed vs. Eventsured ultimately depends on your specific needs and preferences. However, there are better and more affordable options out there.
