What Florida venues ask for

Most Florida venues, including those in Miami and Orlando, require a certificate of insurance naming the venue as additional insured before they will let you load in. Limits are typically $1M per occurrence and $2M aggregate at the baseline, with larger hotels and convention spaces asking for higher limits or specific endorsement wording. We match the certificate to the venue's contract instead of issuing a generic template.

Alcohol and liquor liability

Florida courts apply a narrower dram-shop rule than most states, but venues still require liquor liability as a contractual condition. If alcohol is on the menu, we add liquor liability to the same policy in the same flow.

Weather and the outdoor question

Hurricane season runs June through November and storm surge, heavy rain, and extreme heat all shape outdoor event weather risk; event cancellation coverage with a named-storm trigger is widely purchased. For events with real budget at risk we pair the base liability policy with event cancellation or parametric weather coverage. The trigger gets designed to match the actual risk you are worried about, not a generic template.

The Vendor Liability Program in Florida

If your Florida event has food vendors, beverage vendors, artisans, or service providers who need to show proof of insurance, one enrollment link puts every vendor on their own A rated $1M/$2M general liability policy with no deductible for about $100. Certificates route to you automatically. You stop chasing them at 11pm Friday.
