Butterflies, Doves or Balloons
Shopping Product Reviewsextravagant wedding symbolism
White pigeons are chosen because the white color signifies purity in the same way as the
newly married couple relationship. The two doves also signify that the couple is released to start a new journey together. Equally important in the symbolism of doves is their representation of the couple in the sense that whatever happens in the life of the couple, they will always try to find the comfort of their home together. This is where they know they will find love.
Many people breed pigeons for this purpose. Pigeons are like pigeons and return home after they are released from their cages. For many ceremonies, only two doves are released, but sometimes the couple asks for others as well, which tends to make sense to families supporting the newlywed couple.
Whether you choose two pigeons or a flock of pigeons, you will also have the option of release cages for the two main pigeons. The cages are quite beautiful and worthy of a wedding ceremony and you can choose to keep the couple in a cage or each in a different cage, and then release them to join each other in heaven like you did a few minutes earlier in church.
Words of Caution When Ordering Dove Throws:
check with the city and state regarding the release of live birds
Birds must be raised to return home or they will die in the wild.
the birds must be of a breed that has homing instincts, so it is important to order your pigeons from reputable breeders
Releasing Butterflies
The butterfly release has also become an alternative to more traditional wedding releases. In some cases, the couple releases a large number of butterflies themselves, or in other cases, the couple allows guests to release the butterflies individually. Indian folklore says that you can whisper a secret wish to the butterfly before it lets go and your wish will come true.
The butterflies are normally released from fancy decorated cages, boxes or baskets. A beautiful white wicker basket covered in a veil tied with a white ribbon makes a lovely display as the bride and groom untie the ribbon and release their butterflies. Once all of them are released into the air, they make a truly spectacular sight with their melancholy floating wings and magnificent colours, all in a sea of beauty.
Words of caution when ordering butterfly releases:
do not drop the butterflies from the envelopes as the inside of the envelopes damages the butterfly
in the fall and winter months, temperatures can be too cold for butterflies and you’re just killing them
use companies that have been in business for some time and actually breed butterflies
make sure the company you ultimately place your order with provides adequate information in advance about the delivery, storage, and release of your butterflies
check with your state of residence as some states do not allow the release of butterflies
releasing balloons
Balloons of different colors, sizes and shapes are a beautiful sight when released together in the air. And there are several ways to release the wedding balloons. A huge bag of air-filled balloons can be opened and all the balloons are let out to go up to the top of the building or roof. Another nice display is for each person to release their balloon at the same time and watch them all rise up together.
Since most areas will not allow you to release the balloons outdoors, a more environmentally acceptable idea is to release the balloons indoors. Guests can also attach their own personal sayings to the balloons so that the bride and groom can then read their well-wishers’ sentiments.
Words of Caution When Ordering Balloon Releases:
Not all cities allow balloons to be released into the atmosphere because some balloons are harmful to the environment.
look for alternatives like recycled balloons
don’t take the seller’s word that he can drop the balloons in your city or even the place you’ve chosen
