Terms and Conditions
IF YOU’RE NOT HAPPY FOR ANY REASON JUST LET US KNOW AND WE WILL MAKE IT RIGHT
By placing an order on this website, you are agreeing to the following terms and conditions:
1. ORDERS AND CANCELLATIONS
1. Order Acceptance Policy
All orders and subscription requests received are subject to acceptance by Bouquet Box, and any of its personnel, reserve the right, at our absolute discretion, to reject any order without giving reasons. In the event of rejection, we will refund or cancel any payments received in full, via the payment method used to place the order.
2. Changes to your order
If you wish to change your subscription, please do so via the “My Account” area of the Bouquet Box website. We’ll always do our best to make last-minute changes for you, but we can only guarantee changes (including to the delivery address) that are made at least 4 days before the expected delivery date. At peak periods we begin processing orders earlier than usual, to account for the large volume of deliveries. This means that we may need up to 8 days notice for any changes to be made.
3. Cancellation policy
Subscriptions can be cancelled up to six days before the next payment date. To cancel your subscription all you need to do is let us know by emailing [email protected]. Please note that we have a 4 bouquet minimum per subscription and any subscriptions that are suspended or cancelled before the fourth bouquet has been charged for will be subject to a €15 cancellation fee. At peak periods we begin processing orders earlier than usual, to account for the large volume of deliveries. This means that we may need up to 9 days notice for any changes to be made.
4. Pausing or cancelling your subscription
Please note that we have a 4 bouquet minimum per subscription and any subscriptions that are suspended or cancelled before the fourth bouquet has been charged for will be subject to a €15 cancellation fee. You can cancel a subscription at any time by letting us know at least 6 days before your next payment date within your subscription plan. In such circumstances the pause or cancellation will take effect without charge. In such circumstances, if your card has already been billed (see paragraph 2.2 for billing timings), we will issue a full refund. Where notice is provided after that time, please note you will still receive and be charged for your next delivery (as we will have already started cutting your flowers), but your pause or cancellation instruction will take effect after that delivery. At peak periods we begin processing orders earlier than usual, to account for the large volume of deliveries. This means that we may need up to 9 days notice for any changes to be made.
5. Subscription prices
The price for each order within a subscription is the price at the time that a subscription is set up. We reserve the right, at our absolute discretion, to raise our prices at any time for reasons including, but not limited to, price increases from our suppliers and partners. If we raise our prices, we will notify our subscribers and provide the option to cancel your subscription free of charge.
2. PAYMENTS
1. We accept American Express, Visa and MasterCard credit and debit cards. In order to offer the best security, all our payments are processed securely by Stripe.
2. For all ongoing subscriptions, your credit or debit card will be billed at checkout for your first delivery only. For ongoing deliveries, you will be billed on a recurring basis every week in which a delivery is scheduled. The amount your card will be billed in any given week will be the value of your order(s) for the given week.
3. For all gift bundles, your credit or debit card will be billed upfront on checkout for the entire cost of the subscription.
4. If you create an account and enter your payment details, your card will be stored securely by Stripe so that you can check out on future visits without re-entering your card details.
5. We never store or have access to your credit or debit card details.
3. PRICES
1. All prices include delivery charges unless otherwise stated. All prices include VAT unless otherwise stated.
4. DELIVERY POLICY
1. We deliver our bouquets with Fastway and via selected courier companies.
2. For Fastway deliveries, 95%+ of our deliveries will be on the chosen date and almost all remaining deliveries will take place one day after that. We wish we could provide more certainty, but at this time Fastway does not offer a guaranteed one-day delivery service, so we cannot guarantee the exact delivery date.
3. In the event of a delay by Fastway or a courier, we are unable to offer a refund or to resend your delivery.
4. We are unable to provide delivery notifications for Fastway orders. We do not obtain proof of delivery.
5. We cannot guarantee that delivery instructions will be followed.
6. In the event where a delivery from BouquetBox is refused by the recipient for any reason and returned to BouquetBox, a refund or a replacement will not be sent due to the perishable nature of flowers .
7. Although our team will always try our best to ensure punctual delivery for our customers, BouquetBox cannot be held responsible if a delivery arrives late due to any circumstances impacting the availability of the postal service that we use or anything else outside of BouquetBox’s control.
8. In the event of a non-delivery (flowers not having arrived within 6 days of their payment date), please contact BouquetBox at [email protected]. It is the customer’s responsibility to contact us within 7 days of the scheduled delivery date in order to claim a refund. Failure to do so will result in the lapse of any rights to a refund.
9. BouquetBox only delivers within the Republic of Ireland.
10. We reserve the right, at our absolute discretion, to use a different delivery method without prior notification.
11. If you change address, you must update your address details on the “My Account” section of the website to ensure that no deliveries are sent out to the wrong address. Please ensure this is done at least 4 days before your next order is due to arrive. We are unable to provide refunds for any deliveries sent to the wrong location where we have not received advance notice in accordance with this paragraph. Please note that at peak periods we begin processing orders earlier than usual, to account for the large volume of deliveries. This means that we may need up to 8 days notice for any changes to be made.
12. We reserve the right, at our absolute discretion, to cancel your subscription if it becomes apparent to us that the postal or courier service in your area is too unreliable. We value our customers and our ability to deliver, so where we can’t, we won’t risk disappointing you.
5. OUR PROMISE, RETURNS AND REFUNDS
1. We aim to delight our customers by delivering fresh flowers, in great condition, on time.
2. Freshness
Our flowers are occasionally sent out in bud form meaning they will last longer with the recipient. If you receive flowers that do not seem fresh, please contact us at [email protected] to let us know. If, at our sole discretion, the flowers do not meet our high freshness standards, we will give you the choice of a free replacement at our next available delivery date, or a refund. Please note that you will need to email us a photo of the un-fresh flowers within 72 hours of receipt in order to be eligible for a refund. If we offer you a refund, we will refund you the full amount within 7 working days. Please note that banks might take an additional 5-7 days to refund the amount to your card.
3. Damage
While our flowers are packed carefully to ensure they arrive as fresh and beautiful as when they left us, on a small number of occasions (and for reasons beyond our control) they may get damaged in transit. Should this occur to a level that you deem unacceptable, please contact us so that we can arrange a free replacement at our next available delivery date. Please note that you will need to email us a photo of the damaged flowers in question within 72 hours of receipt of the flowers in order to be eligible for a replacement. If we offer you a refund, we will refund you the full amount within 7 working days. Please note that banks might take an additional 5-7 days to refund the amount to your card.
4. Non Delivery
While we do everything we can to make sure our flowers are delivered, sometimes mistakes do happen and deliveries don’t turn up. If we fail to deliver your order (i.e. if your flowers have not arrived within 6 days of their payment date) we will send you a free replacement on our next available delivery date. If we offer you a refund, we will refund you the full amount within 7 working days. Please note that banks might take an additional 5-7 days to refund the amount on your card.
5. Returns
Please understand that due to the perishable nature of flowers, we are unable to accept returns. We offer customers refunds or replacement flowers if the flowers are not delivered to an acceptable quality, as detailed above.
6. Flower availability and substitution
All floral products are subject to availability. In the event of any supply difficulties or if the flowers we have received from our growers that are needed to make up your order do not meet our high quality standards, we reserve the right, at our absolute discretion, to substitute any product with an alternate product of a similar style and equivalent (or greater) value and quality.
6. OFFERS AND PROMOTION CODES
1. At our discretion, from time to time, we may offer products at discounted prices. These offers are valid from the time that we introduce them to the end date of the offer and they cannot be used for purchases before the offer introduction date or after the offer end date.
2. In the event that a customer has made a purchase and the price of the purchased product subsequently falls or is discounted owing to a special offer, the price of the product at the time of purchase shall prevail. We are unable to offer special offer discounts for purchases that have already been made.
3. As our special offers are contingent on availability, we may change the terms of special offers and promotional codes, or withdraw them altogether, at any time, and without prior notice.
4. We also reserve the right, at our absolute discretion, to offer different personalised special offers and promotions and it will therefore only be possible for the customer in receipt of the special offer to redeem the discount.
5. Unless explicitly otherwise stated, free or discounted introductory offers are only available to new users of the BouquetBox service, and are only available once to any one household.
6. Discounts and credits cannot be used in conjunction with any other offers.

12. Discounts and voucher codes cannot be redeemed against courier delivery charges, percentage discount vouchers are applied only to the bouquet cost unless otherwise stated.

8. CIRCUMSTANCES BEYOND OUR CONTROL

During adverse weather conditions (including but not limited to heavy snow, ice, flooding or high winds), our delivery partners may not be able to deliver orders on time.
