Beautiful White Dove Releases
Release Doves from the Ceremony Dove™ Service look
beautiful, fly beautifully, and return safely home. Beauty and flying skill make the Ceremony Dove
Service ideal for white dove releases at weddings, funerals, and all important milestones of life. The Ceremony Dove™
Service is the first and foremost service to breed Release Duvs especially for beauty and flying skill.
A white dove release from the Ceremony Dove™ Service
imparts memorable dignity to key milestones of life.
White doves from the Ceremony Dove™ Service look different from white racing
pigeons and fly different from white racing pigeons. Family, friends, and guests will be enthralled when
these Release Duvs gently circle up after a release, rather than dart away as racing pigeons do. Smaller
and lighter, the Ceremony Dove™ Service allows photographers to capture superb photographs, without the loud
and frightening wing slapping of racing pigeons. Release Duvs circle because they are bred to circle.
White racing pigeons dart away because they are bred to race home.
Dove
Many types of white birds are called a Release Dove. The best Release
Dove is one specifically bred for ceremonial release, called a "Release Duv". White Ringneck doves have
sometimes been used as Release Doves. Unfortunately, Ringneck doves do not have homing skills, are not
native to North America, and likely will not survive in the wild. However, birds specifically bred for
ceremonial release, such as the Release Duv, are bred to safely return to their home.
Wedding Dove Release Ceremony
Magnificent white wedding doves link breathtaking natural beauty
to traditions of matrimony. As ancient symbols of love and devotion, white doves unite joys
of the moment with hopes for the future. Your audience watches spellbound as each snowy white wedding dove lifts off,
rises, and circles to the sky.

Funeral & Memorial Dove Service
Symbols of peace and bearers of love, white memorial doves carry
comfort to those who need comfort, and lift happy memories above a sad day as they begin their journey home.
Sincere smiles arise from children and adults as downy white doves fly up toward the sky and spirits are
uplifted. White funeral doves deliver stoic tranquility to encircle a funeral service with honor and
dignity in a fitting tribute. Each white dove release is made meaningful as we tailor the release for your
cherished loved one.

Trained White Pigeon
Release Duvs are members of the Rock Dove family. They are trained white pigeons
with homing skills for returning safely to the loft where they live. Unlike white birds such as the Ringneck
dove, a Release Duv has homing skills and is safe for outdoor releases. Unfortunately, too many pet
shops willingly sell non-homing white birds for ceremonial release such as Ringneck doves and Mourning doves, which do not have homing skills
and normally won't survive in the wild. White Pigeons such as the Release Duv are safe to release and
ecologically sound.

The Beginning
Release Duvs for the Ceremony Dove Service were first bred by Wynn Smith in Oregon City.
A variety of flying breeds have contributed to the elegant look and unique
flying style of these Ceremonial Doves. The initial blood line
came from whitedoves of the original Disney stock.
