What can you order for delivery?

We make three styles of fresh wreath, each on a Noble Fir base, and every one comes in two sizes. The price is the only difference between the sizes of the same style.

StyleLookPrice
NaturalBurlap bow, dried orange, twisted hazel, lotus heads, small cones. Warm neutrals.Regular 34cm from £45, Large 65cm from £65
TraditionalVariegated holly, red velvet bow, red berry clusters, cinnamon bundles.Regular 34cm from £45, Large 65cm from £65
ContemporaryGlossy greenery, burlap bow, rosemary, acorns. Clean modern styling.Regular 34cm from £45, Large 65cm from £65

Delivery is free on every wreath and covers the whole UK. We do not deliver outside the UK. Each wreath is handmade from natural materials, so no two are exactly alike, and yours may differ slightly from the product photos.

The wreaths are made to order on our family farm in Clogher, County Tyrone, in small batches, so they are made fresh for each order rather than taken from a shelf. That is why the expected delivery window is shown at checkout.

How does ordering a fresh wreath work, step by step?

Choose your style and size

Pick a style, then Regular or Large. If you are not sure how big a wreath your door needs, our guide to choosing the right size will help.

Check the delivery window at checkout

At checkout you see the expected delivery window and the closest available date or slot, so you know roughly when it should arrive before you pay. In the busiest weeks we do our best to meet your preferred date. If you want help choosing when to order, read when to buy a fresh wreath.

Pay securely

We take the major cards through Stripe.

Look out for your order confirmation

You will get an order confirmation email. Keep it, because you will need the order number if you ever have to contact us.

Follow the tracking

Once your wreath is with the courier, you will get a tracking email or text where the courier provides one. Use it to see when to expect the parcel.

Receive and unbox it

The wreath arrives wrapped to stop it moving and boxed, ready to hang. See the next section for what to do straight away.

Before you pay, check the delivery address and phone number or email you have entered, because the courier tracking message goes to the contact details on your order. A missing flat number or a wrong postcode is the most common reason a parcel goes astray. If you are sending the wreath as a gift, double check that address in particular.

What arrives, and what should you do first?

Your wreath comes boxed, with the wrapping holding it in place so the foliage and decorations do not get crushed in transit. As soon as it arrives:

  • Open the box carefully and lift the wreath out by the frame, not the bow.
  • Look it over for any damage. If something is wrong, take photos before you do anything else.
  • If you are not ready to hang it, keep it somewhere cool and out of direct sun, rather than in a warm room.
  • Fluff or shape any stems that were pressed in the box, and hang it away from heat and direct sun.

For ongoing care through December, see our guide to keeping your wreath fresh. The decorations include small items such as cones and berries, so keep the wreath out of reach of small children and pets. A few people react to fir sap or fragrance, so wash your hands after handling if you are sensitive.

What if nobody is home when it arrives?

A fresh wreath should not sit outside for long. As a general rule:

  • Check your tracking so you know when it is due.
  • If the courier offers options such as choosing a day or a safe place, use them. We cannot promise which options any courier will offer.
  • If you will be out all day, ask a neighbour to take it in, if you are happy for them to.
  • If a card is left or the parcel is missed, follow the courier’s instructions, and contact us if you are unsure what to do.

Can you send a wreath to someone else?

Yes. At checkout you can enter a different delivery address from your billing address, as on most online shops. That makes a wreath an easy present for a relative or neighbour. If you are sending a wreath as a gift, check the delivery window shown and let the recipient know to expect it, so that someone can unbox it and hang it promptly. Delivery is UK only.

What if your wreath arrives damaged?

If your wreath arrives damaged or not as described, please email info@finneganchristmaswreaths.com within 48 hours of delivery. Include your order number and clear photos of the wreath and the box. We will then arrange a replacement or refund, as appropriate.

Because wreaths are handmade from natural materials, each one varies slightly. A small variation from the product photos is normal. Damage in transit is not.

If the box looks damaged when it arrives, take photos of the outside of the box and the label before you open it any further. Then unpack it carefully, photograph the wreath itself, and keep the packaging until we have replied. Remember the 48 hours start from delivery, so send your email, with your order number and the photos attached, as soon as you can.

TipTake the photos before you tidy up. Clear pictures of the damage and the packaging make the process much quicker.

What about returns for a fresh wreath?

Fresh wreaths are perishable and made to order, so we cannot accept change-of-mind returns after dispatch. Your statutory rights are not affected. The law recognises similar exceptions: the Consumer Contracts Regulations list exceptions to the usual 14-day right to cancel, including goods that are liable to deteriorate or expire rapidly and goods made to the consumer’s specifications. If you are comparing sellers, our guide to buying fresh wreaths online explains what to look for.

Planning a larger order? We also welcome custom and bulk or corporate orders. Lead times apply, so get in touch early. Our FAQs have the full delivery and wreath details.

Delivery questions

Frequently asked questions

Short answers to common questions about getting a fresh wreath delivered.

Do you deliver Christmas wreaths across the UK?

Yes. We offer free delivery on all wreaths across the UK. We do not deliver outside the UK, so the address needs to be in the UK. The expected delivery window shows at checkout, before you pay.

Will I get tracking for my wreath?

You will get an order confirmation email, then a courier tracking email or text where tracking is available. Keep both emails, as the order number helps if you ever need to contact us.

How is a fresh wreath packed for delivery?

Each wreath is wrapped to prevent movement and boxed, so it arrives ready to hang. Take it out of the box soon after it arrives, and keep it somewhere cool until you hang it.

Can I choose a delivery date?

The closest available date or slot is offered at checkout, alongside the expected delivery window. In peak weeks we do our best to meet preferred dates, so order early if timing matters to you.

What do I do if my wreath arrives damaged?

Email info@finneganchristmaswreaths.com within 48 hours of delivery, with your order number and clear photos of the wreath, the box and the damage. Take the photos before you tidy up. We will then arrange a replacement or refund, as appropriate.

Can I return a wreath I no longer want?

Wreaths are perishable and made to order, so there are no change-of-mind returns after dispatch. Your statutory rights are not affected, so you are still protected if a wreath is faulty or not as described.
