c. Free Delivery
RENT MY WEDDING provides free ground shipping on all rental items to any address in the continental U.S. The transit time with free ground shipping is 1 – 5 business days, depending on Renter’s physical location.

Renter will be notified at checkout if the Products will arrive by Event Date with the free ground shipping.
d. Free Return Shipping
RENT MY WEDDING provides free return shipping on all rental items within the continental U.S. RENT MY WEDDING will provide pre-paid FedEx shipping label(s) inside the package(s) for use in returning all rented Products. If the pre-paid return labels are misplaced or not found, Renter can download copies of the labels or receive copies via email. All returns must be completed using the pre-paid return system; if Renter chooses alternate method for return, Renter bears all costs and liability.
e. How To Return Products
Products are considered “Returned” as of the date and time that FedEx takes possession of the Products and scans the return labels. Renter must return Products to a physical FedEx location; Renter may not leave packages at a FedEx drop box. Renter should remove all original shipping labels from the boxes and affix the pre-paid return labels provided. Renter should also ensure that FedEx scans all boxes in the order, and obtain a receipt for all boxes returned. The receipt will document the quantity and weight of boxes returned.
f. Return Packaging
Renter agrees to return RENT MY WEDDING Products in the same or comparable packaging in which it was received, which is necessary to ensure Products are not damaged while in transit for return shipping. RENT MY WEDDING will provide the necessary packaging materials. If Renter misplaces the packaging materials, Renter should contact RENT MY WEDDING for instructions on how to package items for return.
4. Extended Rentals and Late Returns
a. Rental Extensions
Renters that wish to retain Products for a longer rental period are eligible to receive a discounted rental rate for a “Rental Extension.” A “Rental Extension” is defined as an additional five-day rental period, beyond the initial five-day rental period. Rental Extensions are charged at a rate of 50% off the regular rental price.
b. Late Fees
Failure to return any rented Product by the “Return Date” will result in Rental Extensions being added to the reservation. If return is up to five (5) days past due for return, one (1) Rental Extension will be added to the reservation and charged to Renter’s credit card. If return is up to ten (10) days past due for return, two (2) Rental Extensions will be added to the reservation and charged to Renter’s credit card. If Products are not returned more than ten (10) days after the Return Date, Renter will be charged for the replacement cost of the unreturned Products. See “Lost, Stolen, Damaged, or Unreturned Products” for more details.
5. Lost, Stolen, Damaged, or Unreturned Products
Renter agrees to return RENT MY WEDDING property in the same condition as when it was received.

Normal wear and tear includes minor scratches, minor stains, or other similar minor damage.
Should any Products require repairs beyond normal wear and tear, RENT MY WEDDING will first attempt to repair Products in-house. If in-house repairs are successful, Renter is not responsible for any damage or
fees. If Products cannot be repaired in-house, Products will be sent to an authorized repair center, and Renter shall be responsible for any and all repair fees.
If Products are not returned, Renter shall be responsible for the replacement cost of the unreturned Products. The replacement cost is determined based upon the published retail price(s) for the Product(s) at the time of renting. Renter’s digital signature authorizes RENT MY WEDDING to charge the cost of any repairs or replacement fees to Renter’s credit card.
6. Defective or Missing Items
RENT MY WEDDING will test all Products before they are shipped to ensure all items are in proper working order.

Renter must notify RENT MY WEDDING of any problems with rented Products by phone or email within 48 hours of delivery. This includes missing Products, defective Products, damaged Products, or any other issues. Failure to provide notice within 48 hours of delivery will result in a waiver of any such claim by Renter.
