Product Descriptions and Prices
Description of goods are those commonly used in the trade and unless otherwise stated refer to imitation products only. All our jewellery is normally non-reactive. We make every effort to provide a clear photograph and detailed written description of all our products including approximate measurements where appropriate. However, please note that 100% accuracy cannot be guaranteed in measurements or photography of our items. Photographs of products may differ to the actual finish especially if items being photographed are naturally reflective and difficult to capture in an image - such as crystal stones. Any image on our website will be subject to variations in user screen resolution, colours etc. which are beyond our control.
All prices are inclusive of VAT where applicable. All prices advertised in magazines, newspapers or online wedding directories or resources apply to the price at the time of submitting the item to that publication or website. Crystal Bridal Accessories reserves the right to amend (increase or decrease) prices on this website without prior notice.
Please Note - due to the recent retail VAT rise in the UK to 20% and increases in Swarovski stone prices, some of the prices on the Crystal Bridal Accessories website have increased effective from Friday 7th January 2011. Regrettably, this price change means an item may not be the same price as advertised in any publications, magazines, newspapers or websites which were authorised or sent to print before this date.
Please Note - Crystal Bridal Accessories does not offer discounts for Benjamin Adams, Pink Paradox, Belle and Little Miss Pink shoes and handbags. Discount codes in any publication or online directory published by Crystal Bridal Accessories will not be accepted against these brands. This discount exclusion does not include discontinued styles of shoes by Benjamin Adams, Pink Paradox, Belle and Little Miss Pink. Discounts can apply to discontinued styles.
Product Returns
We accept returns or exchanges for items returned in their original condition and packaging within 14 working days of receiving the item. We will accept exchanges and returns for sale items. However, we regret we are unable to accept returns for bespoke or special order items, dyed or bleached shoe or handbags, pierced earrings or necklace sets including pierced earrings and bespoke orders made to your specific requirements unless deemed faulty.
We will only accept returns if we have been notified within 7 working days of you receiving the product that you wish to obtain a refund or exchange. We require all goods to be returned to us within a further 7 working days (a total of 14 working days from delivery to you). All returns must include all the original item packaging including any gift boxes, shoe boxes (unmarked), shoe bags and swatches.
IMPORTANT NOTE: If shoes have evidence of being worn without foot socks or scuffed / pitted soles due to not trying on a carpeted surface these are not deemed suitable for refund or exchange. Please do take extra care of all goods to ensure they remain in the same perfect new condition as despatched, unless you have decided to keep them as failure to do so will be classed as your acceptance of the goods. If any items are returned in used / marked condition, we will return them to you without processing a refund or exchange.
Comparing shoes....? We will only allow a maximum of TWO pairs of shoes per customer for style comparison purposes. However, this does not include any shoes which have to be ordered directly from our supplier in which case we will contact you to inform you of this or request further information about shoe sizes and styles which you are ordering.
We reserve the right to reject an order if we suspect that a customer is taking advantage of our returns policy.

We will, of course, make every effort to despatch the items within the required timescale. As long as the item is trackable, has been despatched on the date specified and was scheduled for delivery as requested by the customer, Crystal Bridal Accessories is under no obligation to send a duplicate item or refund any postage costs.
Your statutory rights are not affected in this case and you (the customer) will still be under obligation to accept the goods when they arrive and use the returns procedure detailed to request a refund if you no longer require the item. Crystal Bridal Accessories cannot be held responsible for goods which arrive too late for a scheduled dress fittting, event or wedding day. We recommend that all customers allow adequate time for their order to be delivered.
If an item of mail is undeliverable as a result of an inaccurate address or postcode being provided, this will be returned to Crystal Bridal Accessories and we will charge a postage fee to re-send the item. This postage fee will apply even if the parcel was originally sent using a FREE delivery service. If at this point the customer decides to not continue with the order, we will refund the cost of the items but NOT the postage costs even if a FREE delivery service applied.
If a customer has ordered an incorrect item due to selecting the wrong size, colour or quantity on our website, Crystal Bridal Accessories will not accept responsibility for this error. This applies if the colour, size or quantity of item despatched to the customer are correct and as detailed on the order confirmation. We will not accept responsibility or refund any return delivery costs in this instance.
Crystal Bridal Accessories cannot be held liable for any delivery delays resulting from Royal Mail industrial action, i.e. a strike. However, we do endeavour to send items by Special Delivery if a Royal Mail strike is pending to ensure they will get priority once the strike is over.
