I have a host who wants to invite people to her party who live on the other side of the country. She wants to tell them about my website so they can order through there. What happens with shipping? Where does this order get shipped too? Obviously my host doesn't want it at her house so what should the guest do?

Thanks

They can designate to have it shipped directly to them or to the host. I always encourage my hosts to use my website to have guests order if they are out of state. It's a great way to increase sales! Good luck!
 
Make sure that in the directions for ordering off the website it clearly states select "direct ship" wiht a joke like "you dont' really want your stuff to go to timbuktoo do you? so make sure you select direct ship". As long as they have ordered off the show you cna always call the customers that mess this up and and tell them what shipping and tax will really be so its not a big deal if they select the wrong shipping option as long as you keep your eyes out for it..
