PHOENIX – Deseret Schools FCU is offering the ultimate wedding gift for spring nuptials: wedding insurance. According to Travelers, which underwrites the policy, today’s weddings have an average cost of $27,000; yet, too often weddings are marred when a favorite bridal shop closes or bad weather causes the ceremony to be postponed. Desert School’s Wedding Protector Plan offers a variety of coverages, including cancellation or postponement; additional expenses; lost deposits; photos and video; gifts and special attire. The coverage is being offered through the credit union’s wholly owned CUSO, Desert Schools Financial Services.
