Ready Flowers Limited outsources your order to local florists in your region to prepare arrangements of flowers according to the bill-of-materials associated with each bouquet displayed on this web site. The local florist may elect to deliver those flowers using their own drivers or sub-contract the delivery out to a 3rd party courier company.
All orders received by the prescribed times above will be delivered on a “best efforts” basis. Delays due to heavy traffic, bad weather, fuel strikes and any other unforeseen event will prevent us from delivering in the prescribed time.
All bouquets are prepared fresh and delivered in appropriate climate controlled delivery vehicles. Ready Flowers recommends that all flowers be transferred to a cool site out of direct sunlight and prevailing winds to prolong the life of the flowers.
All care is taken in the handling and delivery of flowers. In the event that the arrangement is damaged in transit then Ready Flowers will arrange with the appropriate local florist for their replacement.
