The Event Helper

I have used them twice for private event insurance. Super easy online form to fill and both times I needed a customised certificate, so called in and very quickly they responded and completed my request. Excellent customer service and excellent experience. Definitely consider them!

We had an event at a City of L.A. park… their insurance requirements can be pretty tough, but Event Helper handled it all. Terriffic and oh so easy.

I was having a great deal of difficulty finding insurance for a charity event until I was referred to The Event Helper. This company is well named as they were incredibly helpful from the very beginning. I purchased the insurance I needed and it was almost to easy to believe. But, of course when things are too good to be true, well… it turned out the owner of the site where the event was to be held decided at last minute that we could not have the event on their site, even after providing what we thought was excellent insurance.
Long story short, Event Helper refunded our money and now as we begin to make plans for a summer event, we will definitely use Event Helper for our insurance!

Wow, The Easiest and most convenient service ever, I didn’t know anything about this process, so I called the toll free number and Marc made it the most wonderful experience ever.
Greatly appreciate your help Marc :-) Thank you, your service definitely deserves 5 stars.

wow. seriously the easiest company to work with and get the insurance policy for my wedding. It was so easy that i felt like it was too good to be true and went on Unilocal hoping there were reviews, and there are! Cheapest on the market as well. Thank you!

Getting a quote and buying my wedding insurance was incredibly easy. It was also the most affordable rate I could find.
Quick tip: If you’re doing a wedding and it’s going past midnight, be sure to add the following day to your insurance quote so you’re fully covered. It’s no additional charge.

I was referred to this company as a lower-​cost option for insurance for an event I’m planning. I didn’t use the website but instead phoned the 855 (toll-​free) number. I know nothing about what I needed for insurance and am surprisingly inarticulate at describing the event or asking what I should do. Justin Deme was patient, reassuring, knowledgeable, fast, and efficient. This was the easiest phone call I’ve made in a long time! The website offers low-​cost event insurance. I don’t know if my payment was lower than I would have been quoted elsewhere, but sometimes the ease of service outweighs any additional cost. Perhaps I even got the best rate — I don’t know, I’m sticking with Justin and The Event Helper!

I am so pleased with this service! Thank you so much. It is the lowest price ever for event insurance that I too have received and it was so easy. Truly, this is a service I will recommend to all of my clients. Thank you.

Thanks Will and Mark (spoke to you both different days) you both were great at Informing me the little in’a and out’s I was having a hard time understanding in regards to venues and bar-​tending insurance. Great company and I’m glad to have found you. I will be sure to send all my clients your way as you guys were great at fixing any changes needed and making it as simple as possible. Thanks :)

I highly recommend this company for event insurance.
The Event Helper is a very fast, efficient and cost effective solution for people who need event insurance. I will be attending an event in the bay area and needed liability insurance and alcohol insurance for the event. Lauren was extremely nice, understood what I was looking for and offered a quote right over the phone. The process of finding the right insurance coverage and buying it was completed within 10 minutes. This is a great solution for someone who needs to have coverage for a conference or event and doesn’t have days to spend on finding it. I wasn’t passed along from broker to broker, it was all done by her on the phone for a reasonable price.

Found them online and are very easy to work with. Answered my call right away and answered all 3 of my emails in less than 1 hour. Also said if it rains willing to change date of insurance. Amazing company to work with. Recommended to anyone who wants to use it.

Marc at Event Helper really lives up to the «helper» concept. Our group meets once a month in a variety of venues, and Marc is always there to guide us through each venue’s insurance requirements. Marc also arranged affordable rates for our small organization, so thanks to him, we have peace of mind. Thanks, Marc!

Love love love my policy with these guys. My clients are impressed — each and every event they book with us comes complete with a certificate of additionally insured. What a great testament to our forward thinking re: protecting their investment!

This is the best insurance you can get for events whether it is a single event or multiple events. The customer service is incredible. Marc was absolutely helpful in setting up my account and continues to be with all my future events. Their prices are very affordable and I highly recommend this company

I am a wedding music vendor, and I had been with another special events insurance company and their premiums went sky high this year so I’m glad I found The Event Helper. It is easy to set up (I called and they were very helpful), and now I have a year of insurance for my music events for literally ¹⁄₃ of the cost of the other company. These folks are great. HIghly recommended!

Wow. these people are horrible! I couldn’t believe how short and impatient they were with me on the phone. I called to inquire about a 1 day event insurance quote and the person who answered had this condescending attitude like I was supposed to know inside and out how to answer the questions in the form, even though I’ve never done this before. PATHETIC customer service.
Regardless of whether or not they offer good rates– STAY AWAY. I can’t imagine what they’d be like if you actually had file a claim…

GOOD LUCK GETTING THEM ON THE PHONE!
Event Helper is an online insurance agency that provides single day and limited event liability and vendor insurance. There are no shortage of companies that do this, but they seem to be doing a lot of marketing to rise to the top of the online heap. This company was suggested by my wedding planner when I discovered at the eleventh hour that I needed to insure my venue for my photographer, who was a friend, not a vendor. I also had to cover the insurance for the florist and the DJ, so I was looking to bundle my vendors, which is not difficult –you basically do this with auto insurance whenever you add a driver to a car policy. Unfortunately, their online interface has an automatic default to exclude vendors in Wedding event policies, and in their Vendor documents it is unclear on how to name multiple primaries. Each time you change the nature of the policy you have to go back to the beginning and start all over again, too, generally arriving at an impasse each time.
When I first called, it was close to 5PM (but before), so I figured I got put on hold long enough to pass their business hours. It sucks, but it happens. I left a message on their voicemail expecting a callback the next morning which did not come. But I’ve also called multiple times during normal business hours (once at 10:40 AM, once at 2:23 PM-​always Mon-​Fri) and I’ve NEVER gotten through. I possibly received a call back when I was on another line two days later (it was a San Francisco number), but I can’t confirm that because they didn’t leave a message if in fact it was them calling, and when I dialed that number back it rang without going to their automated system.
Customer service is incredibly important in insurance coverage. If they are this poor at fielding calls, I can’t even imagine how hard they will be to reach if I need to file a claim!
