Where do the doves go when released?
The doves have been trained to return to their home loft. People often ask if all doves will fly home.  NO.  Only those that have been properly bred with the "homing" instinct and correctly trained.

How do they know where "home" is?
Nobody really knows. But a well-trained dove can navigate 100's of miles to find the way home. 

Will they make a mess at the ceremony?
The birds have a special diet before big events so they can perform at top levels without "messing up".

When will the birds be released?
This is entirely up to you! There can be a lot of creativity in the timing and location of your release. We will discuss that with you during the planning of the event.  We never release birds close to sunset or after dark.  They must have time to fly home before dark.

What if it rains on the day of our ceremony?
For 'Acts of God' such as rain, snow, high winds or other adverse situations, we reserve the right to cancel the dove release. We will not jeopardize the health and well being of our beloved doves. In this event all deposits are fully refundable. Display Packages are not cancelled because of weather.
