Butterfly Releases offer the viewer the chance to see beauty in
flight. The viewers have the opportunity to experience the
beauty of one of nature’s most symbolic and beautiful creations.
The butterfly symbolizes new beginnings and rebirths. What
better way to celebrate the beginning of a new life together
than with the releasing of butterflies at your wedding. There is
an old Indian legend that tells the story of why the butterfly
was created. It is often read at butterfly releases as the
guests make a wish and release their butterflies. Butterfly
Releases are both magical and momentous. Every release is unique
and special just as every wedding, every anniversary, every
birthday, and every moment of our life is unique and special.
Each of us has been given a beautiful gift of life that we must
take the opportunity to experience and enjoy.
Butterflies can be released from the shipping envelopes they
arrive in, with every guest having their own butterfly or with
only the wedding party having their own release envelope. You
may also choose to have a mass release with all of the
butterflies placed in one container. Either option is special
depending on the effect you are trying to achieve.
Butterflies should only be released outside during daylight
hours on a sunny or overcast (not rainy) day with a temperature
above 65 - 70 degrees. The butterflies should be set free no later
than two hours before sunset. This allows the butterflies time
to eat and find a hiding place for the night. Releases should be
held in areas protected from the wind or the butterflies will
quickly disappear. A warm, sunny flower filled area or garden is
best. No matter how you choose to release your butterflies, a
butterfly release is a beautiful, unusual, and exciting way to
celebrate your new life together.
