According to an American Indian Legend:
If anyone desires a wish to come true they must first capture a butterfly and whisper that wish to it.
Since a butterfly can make no sound, the butterfly can not reveal the wish to anyone but the Great Spirit who hears and sees all.In gratitude for giving the beautiful butterfly its freedom, the Great Spirit always grants the wish. So, according to legend, by making a wish and giving the butterfly its freedom, the wish will be taken to the heavens and be granted.
BUTTERFLIES ARE ORDERED!! YES!
Sooo Davey D and I figured it would be radical to do a butterfly release at the end of our ceremony to honor our lost loved ones and because of the Native American Legend! My mom always used to tell me when we would see a butterfly that it was her Father and Dave's fam. was the same way so we figured it would be a cool thing to do. I ordered a few dozen, mostly for the Bridal Party and Family. It would have gotten too expensive go give everyone a butterfly to release. It should make for some beautiful pics! I have a sneeking suspicion someone is going to swat one... will it be you???
Feelings: Creative and satisfied with myself.
