FAQ

Butterfly Release

What is a Butterfly Release?

A Butterfly Release is a beautiful and auspicious ritual where butterflies are set free during special events. The sight of butterflies taking flight evokes unforgettable emotions and is perfect for enchanting your guests.

What is the symbolic meaning of a Butterfly Release?

Butterflies symbolize transformation, rebirth, and change. Releasing them during special events represents a wish for positivity, luck, renewal, and new beginnings for all who witness it.

What is the difference between a “Cloud Release” and a “Personal Release”?

In a Cloud Release, all butterflies are released simultaneously from a single box, creating a spectacular and scenic “cloud” effect of butterflies. This type of release is ideal for astounding guests, and we recommend starting with at least 50 butterflies for a truly impactful display.

In a Personal Release, each guest receives a small box containing one butterfly, which they then release individually. This allows each participant to enjoy an intimate moment as the butterfly entrusted to them awakens and takes flight.

For which events is a butterfly release suitable?

A butterfly release is ideal for various events, such as weddings, baptisms, birthdays, corporate events, graduations, inaugurations, and other significant ceremonies. Each release can be customized to suit the occasion and desired symbolic meaning.

Is it possible to perform a Butterfly Release throughout Europe?

Yes, we provide butterflies for release throughout Europe (check which countries are included here). We arrange express courier shipping to ensure the butterflies arrive in excellent condition and are ready for release.

How are the butterflies transported?

The butterflies are shipped in secure, temperature-controlled packaging to ensure their well-being during transport. Upon receipt, we advise you to carefully follow the instructions for their storage and handling until the moment of release.

How is the butterfly release performed?

At the appropriate moment, gather the guests’ attention and release the butterflies using your chosen method (Cloud or Personal release).

Are there specific conditions for the release?

Yes, we advise against releasing butterflies indoors or after sunset, as they may become disoriented. To ensure their safety, they must be released in open spaces and during daylight hours.

How far in advance do I need to book the butterflies?

To guarantee availability and timely shipping, we recommend placing your order as early as possible, and at least 3 weeks before the event date. However, we are often able to accommodate last-minute requests. Please contact us to check availability.

Which butterfly species do you provide for release?

We breed the following species:

  • Pieris brassicae (Large White)
  • Papilio machaon (Old World Swallowtail)
  • Vanessa cardui (Painted Lady)

Availability varies depending on the season. Please check the availability on our website.

Is butterfly release safe for the environment?

Yes, the butterflies we provide are local species and do not pose a threat to the ecosystem. Released butterflies contribute to biodiversity by pollinating flowers in the environment.

Do you offer customization options for the release?

Yes, we can provide customized solutions to make the release even more special and aligned with your event’s theme.

What is the cost of the Butterfly Release service?

Prices vary based on the number and type of butterflies, and any requested customizations. Please register on our website to view your personalized pricing.

What payment methods are accepted?

We accept payments via Bank Transfer, Credit Cards, and PayPal.

Do you provide on-site assistance during the event?

Given the simplicity of execution, the release is usually performed by clients independently. However, if you require on-site assistance, we can arrange an additional service quoted based on availability and event location.

Is there a minimum or maximum number of butterflies I can order?

The minimum number varies depending on the butterfly species. There is no maximum limit. We can handle orders of any size, subject to availability verification. We invite you to consult the product page on our website.

Butterfly Favors

Here’s the translation of your FAQ content, adapted for an international website with a focus on clarity and engagement:

Each favor holds a chrysalis that will transform into a beautiful butterfly. A few days after the event, your guests can witness the magical emergence of the butterfly.

Why Choose Butterfly Dream Favors?

Butterfly Dream Favors are an innovative concept, completely redefining what a favor can be. Unlike traditional alternatives that often get forgotten, a Butterfly Dream Favor is an interactive gift that continues to bring joy and wonder even days after your event. It’s an active, emotional keepsake.

How and When Will I Receive My Favors?

Your favors are typically shipped about one month before your event. The chrysalides are shipped separately to ensure you have ample time to place them within the favors. Rest assured, the chrysalides provided are completely self-sufficient until the butterfly emerges.

Do Butterfly Dream Favors Arrive Assembled and Packaged?

Generally, we provide the favors unassembled. However, we can supply them pre-assembled upon request. Please note that packaging is not possible.

Is It Difficult to Assemble the Favors?

No, the assembly process is very straightforward. You simply need to close the favor (the adhesive is already included and positioned), add your confetti (confetti are NOT included), and place the chrysalis (included). The favors are specifically designed to ensure the well-being of the butterflies and feature a dedicated compartment for confetti.

Are Butterfly Dream Favors a Sustainable Choice?

Yes, absolutely. They are made entirely from recyclable materials. Furthermore, once released, the butterfly contributes to local biodiversity by pollinating flowers in its environment.

What Butterfly Species Can I Choose From?

The species available vary depending on the season, each with its unique characteristics. Options may include:

  • Pieris brassicae (Large White)
  • Papilio machaon (Old World Swallowtail)
  • Vanessa cardui (Painted Lady)
  • Vanessa atalanta (Red Admiral)

Do You Provide Instructions for Assembling and Using Butterfly Dream Favors?

Yes, of course. Detailed instructions will be sent to you after your order has been confirmed.
