ITEMS LISTED AS PRE-ORDER OR HAVE A LATER SHIPPING DATE
Items available for pre-order will be indicated on the product page with the anticipated ship date. Please note, once your order is placed, the full payment will be captured up front.
PLEASE NOTE: If your order contains pre-order items and available items, your order will be shipped once the pre-order item(s) are received.
We are not able to split orders and ship available items first. If you wish to purchase pre-order items and available items together, we recommend placing a separate order for each.
DELIVERY TIMEFRAMES + DELAYS
Please note that delivery timeframes are guidelines based on estimated time of arrival from the dispatch date, not the date your order is placed. Express Orders are not guaranteed to arrive on time. If you are purchasing for a special occasion, we cannot guarantee delivery as we use third party couriers and have no oversight as to their capacity at the time of purchase.
Once dispatched, please allow up to 7 business days for your order to arrive. This is dependent on your shipping address within Australia. Interstate and regional addresses may require additional shipping days.
Due current Covid circumstances, delivery times may extend past your estimated time of arrival by an additional 7-18 business days. You will receive tracking information via email as supplied by Shippit. This email will contain the Courier Company, estimated time of arrival and any further information relating to delays to your delivery. PO Box or Parcel Lockers addresses will be shipped with Australia Post and you will be provided with your tracking details via email. You can review Australia Post network delays on their website.
Celia Loves cannot be held responsible for delays caused by COVID and Courier Networks. Celia Loves does not guarantee delivery by customer requested dates or those estimated time of arrival as supplied by third party Couriers.
What if my order hasn't arrived in the estimated time?
You will receive tracking details via email once your order has been shipped. If you have not received tracking information, please check your junk inbox.
Please ensure you have correctly entered your shipping address details (house number, street name, suburb and postcode) as we cannot be responsible for orders that do not arrive due to error in address.

Failure to collect your parcel from your local Courier depot or Australia Post may result in your order being returned to Celia Loves warehouse. Additional shipping charges will apply to resend your order to you a second time. Additional charges will apply even if your order qualifies for free shipping under the initial purchase.
