While weddings are celebrations of love and hope, the same sentiments are expressed at funerals and memorial services. More and more, white dove releases are giving comfort, peace, and HOPE to family members and friends at the end of one’s funeral or memorial service. As the pictures to the left show, at the cemetery a widow is given a dove to release, and gently releases a dove after giving it a kiss, and the healing process begins. Choose from a variety of releases from Single Dove Release, to a Trinity Release, a Flight of Angels Release, or a Family and Friends Release (10 doves). As hymns are played in the background, the released doves will circle above together creating a picturesque ending giving comfort and hope to family and friends. We encourage a family member or friend to personally release the dove heavenward. At the end of the service, we can announce to your guests that a dove or doves are being released in memory of your loved one. Family and guests can touch the dove while the music is playing and before it is released. A two dove release can be used when the final partner departs symbolizing that the couple is together again for all eternity. These packages make great gifts from family, friends, or funeral directors as a loving tribute and a celebration of a life lived! |
