| A couple of extremely popular options are when couples choose to release doves or butterflies during or at the conclusion of your wedding ceremony. This is done to symbolise their love for each other. The release of a pair of pure white doves celebrates the start of their new life together. Doves are a well-recognised symbol of peace and eternal love and are symbolic for a wedding because these home loving creatures represent all that is a marriage.
For your wedding, the birds are brought to the event by professional handlers and set free by the bride and groom at an appropriate moment. After their spectacular release, they may circle overhead; they will then fly back to their home.
Butterflies are also often released at significant times of transition in our lives with marriage being a very significant, happy transition. People throughout the world love butterflies, they are seen as gentle and beautiful symbols of life. The flutter of butterflies at your wedding adds a special ‘surprise’ for guests when they are released.
