Flower Orders with San Diego Blooms
​
Fresh Material
San Diego Blooms makes every effort possible to match requests for colors, varieties, sizes and quantities of fresh floral materials and the client understands that those fresh products and materials are subject to the laws of nature. If a specific match of the highest quality cannot be made to the original contracted items, substitutions will be made at the sole discretion of San Diego Blooms for a product of an equal or higher value.
Accountability
Once flower leave the premises of San Diego Blooms they are no longer responsible for floral arrangements and/or décor. San Diego Blooms cannot be held accountable for contracted items damaged during the course of the event by weather (heat, cold, rain, wind, etc.) or persons other than San Diego Blooms staff members.
Force Majeure
If San Diego Blooms is not able to perform or provide in entirety its contracted services or products for any reason, not limited to, but including Acts of God, war, civil disturbances, road closures, severe traffic, fire, casualty, or other causes beyond the control of both parties, all payments with the exception of the deposit will be returned in full.
Shop Events & Flowers
Flower Substitutions
San Diego Blooms LLC. reserves the right to make substitutions in the event the flowers received are not of the quality suitable for your flower order. In this event, the integrity of the proposed color scheme will be maintained and flowers of equivalent value will be used. San Diego Blooms flower arrangements are all one of a kind! Each arrangement is subject to flower availability and season.
All flower orders are final. Once the order leaves the store premises to be delivered by a contracted third party service, San Diego Blooms LLC. is no longer responsible for the order (i.e.: any damages incurred due to mishandling, transit, weather, etc.)

Deliveries
​
Claim Non-Delivery
If you place an order and claim it was not delivered to the recipient, please allow us 24-48 hours for a complete investigation into the matter. In many cases, it is a simple matter that delivery was attempted and no one was available at the home or office to accept delivery and no neighbors or other parties were able to take delivery on the recipient’s behalf. If this is the case, San Diego Blooms reserves the right to attempt redelivery of your order. On the rare occasion that we discover no delivery attempt was made, we will provide you with a full refund. If we are unable to substantiate your claim, we reserve the right to reject that claim.
Rejected Delivery
If you place an order and the recipient rejects delivery, whatever the reason, San Diego Blooms will not provide a refund and cannot be held liable for the recipient’s decision.
Undeliverable-Orders
If our delivery drivers are unable to locate or reach the door of the address provided, they will call and text all phone numbers for the customer and recipient on the order to ask for assistance. Our drivers will wait for 15 minutes to hopefully receive a resolution to the issue from one of the contacted numbers. If the driver is unable to reach the address after the 15 minutes, they will send a final notification that they are continuing with their route. The undeliverable order will be returned to our design studio, where our customer service team will reach out to the customer to coordinate a redelivery, or pickup from one of our shops. If there is no reply to our customer service team's attempts to contact within 2 days, the order will be considered forfeit. If the customer would like San Diego Blooms to attempt redelivery, an invoice for the new delivery fee will be sent to the customer and delivery will be coordinated once the invoice is paid. The cost of the delivery fee will be $15 if the redelivery address is in zone 1, $25 if it is in zone 2 and $50 if it is in zone 3.
​
A local delivery fee of $ will be added to each order, for each address. (For deliveries outside our local delivery area, this fee may vary.) U.S. orders must be received before 12:00 p.m. in the recipient's time zone to assure same-day delivery. Orders received after that time will be delivered the following day. We will do our best to accommodate deliveries at specific times of day, but we cannot guarantee it. We are unable to make deliveries on Sundays. Deliveries requested on this day will be delivered the following business day. Delivery of orders to rural route addresses or cemeteries cannot be guaranteed.
Quality
If a delivery is made, and there is any question as to the quality of the flowers, the recipient should contact San Diego Blooms to discuss the matter. In most cases, we will gladly replace the arrangement. However, claims must be made within 24 hours of delivery. No refunds or replacements will be made after this period. Nor will refunds or replacements be made based on improper plant or flower care on the part of the recipient.
Workshops
​
Not able to attend? To receive a full refund for a workshop ticket, please reach out to hello@sandiegoblooms.com within 48 hours of purchase. If you need to cancel your ticket more than 48 hours after purchase, please reach out to hello@sandiegoblooms.com to coordinate. Our return policy reflects the limited nature of workshop and event tickets: Cancelling a ticket more than 48 hours ahead of class? You may receive store credit for the full amount OR a rescheduled ticket for another workshop of equal or lesser value. Need to cancel less than 48 hours ahead of class? You may receive store credit for 50% of the value of the workshop ticket, which can be applied towards a future workshop. After the workshop has started, no store credit or refund may be issued.
