Frequently Asked Questions
How are our doves cared for?
Our doves are highly trained and receive the best possible care, including a specialised diet and clean living environment. They are bred for their homing ability and love to fly back to their loft after each release.
What happens if there is bad weather?
The safety of our birds is paramount. If there is heavy rain, fog, excessive heat or high winds, we may have to cancel the release. In these rare cases, we offer a full refund or will work with you to reschedule if appropriate.
Which locations do you cover in the UK?
We cover a wide local area across Yorkshire. Please get in contact with your event postcode, and we will confirm our availability for your specific location. immediately.
Can we release the doves by hand?
No, due to the safety of our birds being our highest priority, all releases are from our wide choice of available cages and baskets. Guests that are releasing the doves will conduct the release from these cages and baskets.
How long do the doves stay at the event?
We typically arrive 30 minutes before the scheduled release to set up. Once released, the doves will usually circle the area for a few moments before beginning their journey home.
What happens to the doves after the release?
Immediately after being released, the doves use their natural instincts to navigate back to their home loft. They often arrive home before our handlers.
