2.4 Any samples, pictures, descriptions or advertising we issue and any descriptions or illustrations on the Website are issued or published solely to provide You with an approximate idea of the Presents they describe. They do not form part of the contract between You and Us or any other contract between You and Us for the sale of the Presents.

2.5 The Order is an offer by You to enter into a binding contract, which we are free to accept or decline at our absolute discretion.

2.6 These Terms shall become binding on You and Us when we issue You with an Order Confirmation at which point a contract shall come into existence between us.

2.8 We may revise and amend these Terms from time to time to reflect changes in our business, changes in technology, changes in payment methods and changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements. You will be subject to the policies and terms in force at the time that You order the Presents from Us, unless any change to those policies or these Terms is required by law or government or regulatory authority (in which case, it will apply to orders You have previously placed that we have not yet fulfilled).

3. PRESENTS

3.1 We warrant that on delivery the Presents shall:
3.1.1 conform in all material respects with the manufacturer’s specification subject to any qualification or representation contained in the brochures or other documentation;
3.1.2 be of satisfactory quality;
3.1.3 be fit for any purpose we say the Presents are fit for or for any reasonable purpose which the Couple uses the Presents;

3.3 The warranties in these Terms do not apply to any defect in the Presents arising from fair wear and tear, wilful damage, accident, negligence by You or any third party, if You or the Couple uses the Presents in a way that we or the manufacturer do not recommend, Your or the Couple’s failure to follow the manufacturer’s instructions, or any alteration or repair You or the Couple carry out without our prior written approval.

3.4 We will take reasonable steps to pack the Presents properly and to ensure that the Couple receive the Presents in good condition.

4.1 You agree that we will deliver the Presents to the Couple in accordance with our Agreement with them.

4.2 Delivery of the Presents will be completed when we deliver the Presents to the Couple’s delivery address as agreed between Us and the Couple. Please note that delivery may be some time after the Wedding Date and depends upon a number of factors including whether the Couple chooses to delay the ordering of their Presents or for Us to store their Presents.

4.3 The Presents will be the responsibility of the Couple from the point of delivery at their delivery address.

4.4 Please note that the Presents may be exchanged at the option of the Couple with Presents of a greater or equivalent value to the Price (for example to make up sets of crockery or glasses). You agree that where such exchanges are made in respect of the Presents You purchase we will have discharged our responsibilities to You as though the Couple had received the Presents originally selected by You.

4.5 You acknowledge that the purpose of the agreement between You and Us is to provide the Couple with a present of equivalent value to the Price (whether this is the original Present or one subsequently exchanged at the request of the Couple). You agree that We are under no obligation to notify you of any exchanges of Presents that the Couple makes.

4.6 If for reasons beyond our control the Present You purchase is unavailable We will contact the Couple to arrange for them to choose an alternative Present of equivalent value.

5. DAMAGED OR FAULTY GOODS AND RETURNS

YOUR ATTENTION IS DRAWN TO THIS CLAUSE

5.1 In the unlikely event that the Presents do not conform with these Terms You or the Couple must let Us know as soon as reasonably practicable and in any event within seven (7) days of delivery of the Presents. We will then liaise with the Couple to arrange return of the Presents and assess how best to resolve the issue. We will normally either arrange for repair or replacement of the Presents by the manufacturer. If a satisfactory resolution cannot be achieved by repair or replacement we will arrange for a refund of the Price to the Couple who may then choose alternative Presents of the same value or higher value provided that the difference is paid by the Couple.

5.2 These Terms will apply to any repaired or replacement Presents we supply to the Couple.

6.3 The Price includes VAT and delivery costs to a UK mainland address. We will liaise with the Couple regarding any extra delivery costs which fall outside the Price.

6.4 Payment for all Presents must be made in advance. We accept payment by cheque or most major credit and debit cards (we are unable to accept payment by American Express).
