White Butterflies for Memorials and Funerals

White Butterflies are a symbol of loved ones watching over us who have passed on. Celebrate the life of your loved one with an all white butterfly release. The whites are special because their style of flying makes for our favorite release experience! They are very quick to fly up and create a cascading fountain effect! White butterflies also LOVE to find colorful flowers nearby and will often stick around to nuzzle nectar. A very engaging butterfly to celebrate the life of those who aren't with us anymore. Perfect for funerals, memorials, and celebrations of life to honor and remember those who are gone but still in our hearts. 

How many butterflies should I order? You can order as many as you like. If you are looking for a spectacular release experience, we recommend 50-100 butterflies for small to medium sized groups. This quantity creates a release experience that engages everyone present with a beautiful fountain of butterflies. For very small groups on a budget, you can create a wonderful experience with as few as a dozen butterflies. The more you get, the more you save! If you need a specific number, please order from the single white butterflies page, or contact us directly. Very simple instructions are included to guide you through the release process.

When will the butterflies arrive? Funerals and memorials often are planned on very short notice. Luckily, butterflies are something you wont have to worry about. All white butterfly orders are shipped overnight to arrive the day of or the day before your event date- just let us know on the date you want your butterflies to arrive on next page in your shopping cart. 

How are the butterflies released? White butterflies come in a centralized container, a beautiful white popup with an opening on the top. Whites are tough butterflies, but cannot be released in individual envelopes. If you want individual release envelopes, we recommend our Painted Lady or Mixed Butterfly Packages.

Where can this butterfly be shipped? This butterfly is approved by the USDA to be shipped to all US states besides Alaska and Hawaii. All orders are shipped overnight to make sure they arrive fresh and safe. Generally available from March until October. Contact us for availability during winter months. 

If you want to see the white butterflies in action, we love them so much, we actually used them for our sister's wedding in April 2022. Here is a link to see what the release looked like (we gave our sister 200 white butterflies).
