Please read these terms & conditions of use carefully before using this site.

Welcome to our website. If you continue to browse and use this website you are agreeing to comply with and be bound by the following Terms and Conditions of Use (“Terms”), which together with our Privacy Policy, govern The Floral Society’s relationship with you in relation to your use of this website.

QUALITY + FLOWER CARE

At the Floral Society, we pride ourselves on the quality of our products and services. It’s important to remember that flowers are a perishable product that will react to immediate indoor environment and external weather conditions. We ensure that only the freshest and highest quality flowers are used each day. Unfortunately, once we dispatch our flowers, external factors beyond our control may result in their longevity being reduced.

AFTERCARE

To assist in prolonging their life, we recommend cutting stems on a sharp angle and changing the vase water every two days. Air conditioning, extreme heat or sudden changes in climate may also have an adverse effect on your flowers. Unfortunately, with various external factors outside of our control, it’s difficult for The Floral Society to guarantee flower quality in every case.

Aftercare Tips:

RETURNS AND REFUNDS

Please contact us immediately via email if you have any problems with your order. On average, flowers should last anywhere from 3-7 days. Remember flowers are a perishable product and different flowers varieties have different life spans, and can be more delicate compared to other flower species.

Once the flowers have been received, aftercare is an important factor when increasing the longevity of your flowers. Should your flowers perish within 24 hours of their delivery date, and we are satisfied that all care instructions provided have been followed, The Floral Society will be happy to resend a new bunch of flowers. However, The Floral Society reserves the right to request photographs of the original bunch of flowers to verify prior to a replacement bunch can being issued. These photos must be clear so our florists can review and determine the condition of the flowers.

External controls such as weather, and where you place your bunch in your home, can impact the life span of the flowers. When preparing every bunch, we undertake a quality control check prior to the flowers leaving the studio to ensure the highest quality.

The Floral Society requires that any dissatisfaction of your flowers be communicated to our team within 24 hours of the delivery date. If you cannot show proof of photographs within 24 hours of the original delivery date. The Floral Society reserves the right to not issue a refund or replacement bunch.

If the recipient receives damaged or sub-standard flowers, please contact us immediately so we can arrange a replacement bunch for re-delivery on the next available day.

Our florists will review the photos and at our discretion, consider issues raised after the 24 hours deadline but reserve the right to refuse the options of refunding or resending another bunch.

If a refund or redelivery has been approved, this will be done at our earliest convenience. Usually within 24-48 hours or our next available delivery date.

Refunds are processed via their original payment method and can take up to 5-10 business days to appear in your account.

If you lodged your payment through Afterpay, the refund will be sent directly to them. Afterpay will then work out the number of payments you have made and will issue a refund based off that amount.

FAILED DELIVERIES THAT REQUIRE REPLACEMENT BUNCHES

It’s important you provide us with the correct details upon ordering. If you provide us with incorrect details, we will attempt your delivery as per your instructions, but will take no responsibility for a failed delivery.

If we are unable to deliver to the address provided, we can re-deliver on the same day (depending on the time of the re-delivery notice), or our next available delivery date. However, this incurs a re-delivery fee of $17.00 if we resend the same bouquet.

Please remember that our flowers are perishable products. Our store will attempt to contact the sender to arrange a re-delivery. Please contact us ASAP and within 48 hours by phone or email to organise a re-delivery to resend the same bouquet. Please review our delivery information page for more information.

In some cases, were the recipient has been contacted upon arrival by the courier (i.e Government buildings or secured unit complexes), and it resulted in a failed delivery, the bunch cannot be redelivered unless the sender has made contact with The Floral Society, and has made payment for redelivery. If required, the sender will also need to provide an updated delivery location.

Our florists have designed this bouquet especially for your order and have delivered as per your information.

The Floral Society will do our best to follow up and contact the sender to organise a redelivery, however, it is important to make sure all your contact information is current and correct.

If you contact us within 3 days of the original delivery date and you wish to send the original bouquet, there will also be a redelivery fee of $17.00 to resend the original bouquet.

If you contact The Floral Society 5 days after the original delivery date, there will be an amending fee to re-send the same bouquet. The prices are outlined below:

Please note if you wish to have the bunch re-delivered this will incur a $17.00 delivery fee on top of the above amount. The Floral Society takes pride, time and resources when preparing these bouquets, especially for your order.

When agreeing to the terms and conditions at the checkout, you are agreeing that should you not make any contact within 10 days after the first delivery date, you agree to forfeit your flowers and will be required to place a new order online.
