Ridgeview Lofts provides professional, beautifully orchestrated white dove
releases throughout the greater Grand Traverse/Leelanau Area.
Our beautiful white doves are really some of the areas most pampered pets.
Meticulously groomed and on a special feeding program to prevent accidents
on your guests. After their release, our doves will fly upward and circle
your guests flying off into the horizon, to return to their garden home.
We are dedicated to the humane and ethical treatment of all birds and
animals, therefore we never release them indoors, or if we feel inclement
weather conditions would put them at risk. All releases are attended by a
trained and properly attired dove handler.
A dove release brings an elegant touch to your special day. We coordinate
with your photographer and videographer to time the release, so they can
capture this special moment for you. Doves can be released in any season or
at sunrise or sunset services.
