Pony Up! proudly offers White Dove Releases for Weddings, Birthdays, Grand Opening Events and other Celebrations. We also offer spiritually uplifting "Dove" releases for Funeral Services and Memorials. Please read below for important information about our services:
"Dove" is in quotation because the actual type of birds released are trained pure white homing pigeons. An actual white Dove is a much smaller type of bird that cannot fly as well and does not have the same stamina nor instinctive homing ability to safely find its way home. Our "Doves" are hatched and raised here at the ranch and carefully trained to fly home easily from up to a hundred miles away- in most cases they will beat anyone home traveling by car!
Weddings
We know how important your wedding day is. Therefore, our releases are always done in a very professional manner- from the handlers' dress attire all the way to the beautiful white ceremonial release baskets the "Doves" emerge from. "Doves" choose a mate for life... a beautiful symbol of love and devoted partnership that will add the exclamation point to any wedding ceremony. The awe of seeing a sea of glorious white wings circling above your guests and taking to the sky is simply breathtaking.
Pricing is as follows:
Releases done by our Professional Handler:
Up to 20 "Doves" released - $150
25 released - $200
50 released - $300
100 released - $500
Funeral Services and Memorials
"Doves" can represent the spiritual transition from one life to the next. These feathered spirits seem to transcend our earthly world and carry with them the love, beauty and devotion of those we are remembering.
Pricing is as follows:
Symbolic release of 4 Doves - $95
This option is the traditional Trinity release and comes with a specialized case allowing for timely release by the ceremony director. First, a single white dove is released representing the soul or spirit of the loved one who has passed on. Second, the remaining three doves (representing The Father, Son and Holy Ghost) are released to join the first in flight toward the heavens above.
