-
How do I cancel my order, or return wine I don’t want?
CANCELLATION: We are unable to cancel orders. As soon as your order is confirmed, it is automatically sent to our warehouse and processed for shipment. In some circumstances, we can "recall" your order from the carrier, but shipping fees will still apply.
RETURNS: We are unable to accept returned wine for any reason. This includes orders placed in error.
-
How do I manage my order once it has been placed?
Once UPS has your box of wine, you need to work directly with them to change shipment details. We highly recommend that you enroll in the free UPS My Choice program, which will allow you to request address changes and track your package. In some circumstances, we might be able to assist you in requesting a change of delivery address, but UPS’s fees will still apply.
-
What if I miss my delivery?
The carrier will attempt to deliver your package three times, if they do not successfully connect with someone 21 years or older to sign for the package, your wines will be automatically returned to our warehouse.
Once we get notification that your wines have been received back to us, we can issue a re-ship request which will incur a $35 shipping fee.
-
Can I get my wine delivered even if I’m not home?
State and federal laws prohibit carriers (UPS/FedEx) from leaving alcohol packages without obtaining a signature from someone 21 or over. We recommend using a business shipping address where someone is available to sign for your package if possible.
-
What happens if my wine is damaged when it arrives?
If your package is damaged by the shipping carrier, please email the details to hello@mcbridesisters.com along with any photographic evidence you have, and we will help you file a claim. Once a claim has been filed, we will send you a replacement for the damaged product.
-
Is there an easy way to send the same order to multiple destinations?
YES! We can help. For orders of 10 or more, please email hello@mcbridesisters.com and a customer service representative will be happy to assist you. For smaller orders, please place individually through our website.
