Can orders that are placed on the website be charged the flat rate shipping and sent to the hostess? I have only had one order on the website so far.
 
You might want to check and see if the purchaser wants it that way. They may live out of town or not see the host real often.
 
I always check with that particular person who ordered. I have had people who said they wanted to pay the extra as they were out of town a lot and just wanted it at the house when they got home.

Does it give the option when they place the order?
 
Yes, it does but when I have asked it is a split on that they marked direct shipping and didn't mean to. It shows that you care if you make sure they wanted the direct shipping or not.

Thank you again for such quick answers. I love this site.:)
 
I believe it does give the option for direct shipping or shipping to the host as I have had it come to me both ways.
