Are there minimums for your gift orders?

With our custom gifting services for wedding and corporate clients, we do have minimum quantity requirements based on the type of gift it is.  There are no minimums for gifts available on our web site.

How much notice is required?

We ask for a minimum of four to six weeks for custom gifting projects.

Can alcohol be included in gift boxes?

Shelburne Gift Company holds a retail liquor license from the State of Vermont, which permits us to include wine and beer in our gift designs.  Because all spirits are regulated and sold only through State of Vermont liquor stores, we are not permitted to include hard alcohol in our gift designs.

 

If we are delivering gifts containing alcohol to your location, please note that you will be required to have an individual age 21 or older on hand with ID to receive the gifts and to sign off that they are of legal age to do so.

Please be advised that venues often will have their own rules when it comes to allowing alcohol to be delivered in gift boxes.  While we work one-on-one with each venue to determine their individual policies before presenting gift designs that include alcohol, it's often a good idea to check with your venue in advance of planning your welcome gifts in order to avoid snafus or disappointment.

The shipment of gifts containing alcohol is regulated by the state to which they are being delivered.  Please note that many states, including Vermont, do not permit the shipping of alcohol to addresses in their state.

Can items in custom gifts be changed?

Items in custom gift orders can be changed up to 45 days prior to delivery date.  

Please note that there are occasions when items we've included in a gift design are discontinued, retired or otherwise become unavailable due to circumstances beyond our control.  In the event that this happens, we will notify you a minimum of 30 days in advance of the event to discuss reasonable substitutions.

Shipping and Delivery

How are gifts delivered?

Based on the size of the gift order, we will hand deliver custom orders inside Chittenden County.  Outside of Chittenden County and inside Vermont and upstate New York, we will hand deliver gifts with delivery charges based on the project, location and number of gifts.  Outside of these areas, we will ship via Priority Mail; other shipping options are available based on individual needs.

Can I pick up my gifts?

Sure!  We are happy to schedule an appointment for you to pick up your gift order at our studio, located at 2538 Shelburne Road, Suite 100, in Shelburne, Vermont.
