Insurance Updates for Newly Married Couples

Given the importance of insurance policies in financial security and peace of mind, you should revisit policies regularly and after any major life changes, such as a change in marriage status.

Health Insurance Updates

One of the first things to review is health insurance. Couples should compare their individual plans to determine which offers the best coverage and cost. Often, it makes sense to consolidate under one plan, which can save money and simplify management.

Be sure to check enrollment periods and any potential changes in coverage.

Life Insurance

Life insurance becomes more critical after marriage, especially if you plan to start a family. Couples should consider purchasing or updating life insurance policies to ensure financial security for each other.

This might include increasing coverage amounts, exploring riders for additional benefits and updating beneficiaries.

Auto Insurance

Combining auto insurance policies can often lead to discounts. Newlyweds should contact their insurance providers to explore multi-car discounts or bundling options with other types of insurance, such as home or renters insurance.

Homeowners or Renters Insurance Updates

Updating your homeowners or renters insurance is essential if you’re moving into a new home or apartment. Ensure that both names are on the policy and that coverage amounts reflect the combined value of your possessions.

This is also a good time to consider additional coverage for high-value items like jewelry or electronics.

Beneficiary Designations

Review and update beneficiary designations on all insurance policies and other finance-related matters, such as retirement accounts. This can help ensure that your spouse is the primary beneficiary and can avoid potential legal complications.
