He is German and a lawyer in Munich, and I am shocked to find that they can refuse to cover him. Do all wedding insurance providers refuse to covers foreigners or can anyone recommend any other insurance company where it would be fine?

I was with WeddingPlan, they were great, and they tailored the cover to my needs as my wedding was a bit outside the standard requirements, so I am sure they would accept your daughters groom.
Also very interesting: What types of health insurance for foreigners are available in England? How does health insurance in germany work? Does anyone have supermarket home insurance? Marks and Spencer or Tesco? What is usual for a pet insurance excess? Is a life insurance gift a good idea? Who needs supplemental life insurance? Body insurance for models?

Have you tried calling again? Perhaps there was a mistake the first time round? If not then ask to speak to a manager and find out some facts before you go so if they still refuse you can say you are going to make a formal complaint. Ridiculous!!!!
