Congratulations, Newlyweds! You survived the seating chart disagreements, last-minute surprises from your wedding planner and meeting all your new in-laws. Now for the fun part: it’s time to shop for and combine insurance policies. Although this is probably not the most exciting thing to do, it’s important.

You’re going to be making big decisions together, so it’s best to be as informed as you can. Here are a few things to consider:

Auto Insurance

When it comes to insurance, your first thought as newlyweds is moving to one auto insurance policy. This is especially effective if you or your spouse have some blemishes on your insurance history. However, it’s best to check with an agent regarding prices. Having a combined policy may not save you money at all. 

Homeowner’s, Condo & Renter’s Insurance

If you have never shared a home or apartment with your spouse, dropping one homeowner or renter’s policy seems like a no-brainer. As you combine your lives, you are combining your valuables under one roof as well. With this in mind, consider increasing the value of your policy to ensure your wedding gifts are covered.

Multiple Policies Under One Roof

As you two have now combined your lives, consider combining your insurance policies with one company. Shop around, and find out who gives you the best discount for having multiple policies with the same company. This can lead to significant savings each month.

Boat, Flood & Valuables Insurance

It’s easy to forget about insurance on things you don’t use as often, but these can also either be dropped or purchased with one company for additional savings. For example, if you earn a nice living and own a boat, live by the water, and follow the “three paychecks” rule for an engagement ring, see if you can combine these policies with your home and auto insurance.
