Getting Married and Car Insurance

August 25, 2008 | By: Matt | Comments ( 0 ) | Posted in: Auto

I am getting married in May 2009 to my lovely fiancée Jackie. While we have been told that we have plenty of time to make our wedding arrangements, we are trying to get as much done as early as possible. And while it isn't probably on her to do list, I know we need to start figuring out our insurance policies; beginning with our car insurance.

 

Right away, I start to think that we are going to be paying an arm and a leg for car insurance. Then I start to think back to my work and realize, "I know how people can save on their car insurance, so I should be one of them!" Luckily, both Jackie and I are going to be over 25 when we take the plunge; I say luckily because, historically drivers 16 to 25 pay more for their car insurance.

 

Also, we both drive safe cars which should keep our premiums manageable. Both our cars have noisemaker alarms as well. Safety features and anti-theft devices can lead to car insurance savings depending on who your car insurance provider is. You can also find additional savings if you don't drive a lot to and from work, which she and I will be able to carpool, leading to saving money gas and possible savings on car insurance.

 

The best way to keep your car insurance premiums manageable is to avoid tickets and accidents. We both have a couple of black spots on our driving records but overall have relatively clean driving record. So while I can get all caught up in how much we are going to be paying for car insurance and she worries about what our wedding colors are going to, I can find solace in knowing that we can also find savings on our car insurance. This means we are getting another tier added to our wedding cake!
