Can anyone recommend who to use for a Butterfly release at our garden wedding at the Davenport House in Savannah, GA?  I am thinking we need 3 dozen and I really want variety of beautiful colors of butterflies.  And of course not costing an arm & a leg...lol

Thanks,
Christine

    Please reconsider this awful idea. When you release butterflies into a strange area you are doing bad things to the local biological balance between these creatures. Consider the consequences to the local environment before you do something foolish because it looks pretty on your wedding day.

    My sister had a butterfly release at her wedding and I believe it cost about 400-500 but it really wasnt worth it since quite a few of them died before the release :(

    Another option to try is a dove release. It is very pretty and not quite that expensive...$150-$250 (it's also an Italian tradition!)

    There's always the "release of the wasps". They don't cost nearly as much as butterflies!
