Memorials / Gravesite Services

"Oh that I had wings of a dove! For then I would fly away
and be at rest." Psalm 55:6

Our Prayers go out to you and your family.

We have pure white doves for release at Funerals and Memorial services. A Graveside service with a ceremonial white dove's release creates a beautiful way to say good-byes to the departed. The symbolism allows for a release of emotion at these mournful times by family and friends.

As an alternative to flowers, consider the gift of a white dove release. This is a gift that will not only leave a lasting memory for the family of the deceased, but for every person in attendance.

We have several Memorial Dove Release Packages.

"And the Holy Spirit descended upon him in bodily form as a Dove, and a voice from Heaven saying, "Thou art my beloved son; in thee I am well pleased." Luke 3:22

Spirit Release (1 Dove):

The release of a single bird soaring skyward signifies their journey to the heavens. The perfect ending to a gravesite service is the symbolic release of white doves. The family will release one dove from a tastefully decorated white basket to represent the loved one. Perfect for a poem or verse (that we supply).

Trinity Release (4 Doves):

Chapel will be on Display before and during the service with 3 doves inside. At the gravesite three doves are released from a white chapel and then a single dove will be released to ascend joining the first three doves released. This type of formation represents the Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost.

The Flight of Angels Release (Includes Chapel if desired):

A perfect healing touch to final goodbyes. Twelve to fifteen white doves are released by loved ones or as a flock to ascend and circle the area. Then, moments later, a single white dove is released. Symbolizing the departing spirit, it joins the others which represent a flock of Angels. You may think of the flock as the spirits of family and friends who have passed before, welcoming and showing the departed soul the final way home. The entire flock then flies away towards the heavens. This is a poignantly symbolic and memorable conclusion to your loved one's funeral service.

Heavenly Flight Release:

Includes the above, but also we release between 24-30 doves.

Twenty One Dove Salute:

A Flock of twenty one doves is let go at the service representing the recently departed member's service in the United States Armed Forces. Gives the feel of a 21 gun salute.

Custom Packages:
Some people like to release a bird for each grandchild, to join the single release. We are willing to put together a customized package for you too. Call or e-mail us for pricing and information.
