Wedding Service
Lynne, I just wanted to let you know what a superb job you and your doves did at my daughter, Rachels wedding last Friday in Caerphilly. The little extra we paid to have Lovey Dovey at the wedding was worth every penny. Even when enquiring about the doves, you were so much more confident, professional and knowledgeable (and in one case much more friendly too) than the competitors you have, and just looking at your beautiful and informative website, which by the way stands a mile apart from others we looked at, we knew you would be the best and you were. The guests were overwhelmed by your speech, it really hit the spot and so appropriate for the day. You looked great, and your doves looked as you say on the website "fabulous". I cant thank you enough for making the wedding such a special day.
I will be recommending you to everyone, and will be booking you again. You have a customer for life here.
Sincerely thanking you and your doves, Erica, mother of the bride.
Dear Lynne,
Just a note to say a big THANK YOU to the doves!.... and you of course!
The sun shone!!! and we had a terrific day and the doves really made it complete they were the icing on the cake!!!! Everyone was so taken by them and their ears must be really burning as everyone keeps talking about them still!!! They really were beautiful and the cages decorated to perfection.
We would definitely recommend your services you really made our special day even more special and memorable than we could ever have wished for, We can never thank you enough,

Dear Lynne
Thank you very much for your email and photos, they are brilliant. Everyone commented on how wonderful the Doves were and your speech they found very moving, I think there were a few tears around, especially from the bride and groom. Our guests had never seen anything like these Doves before at any service and were amazed and intrigued by it all, it certainly added to the wedding and made it something everyone is still talking about.
Thank you again, your Doves certainly added a lovely touch to the end of the wedding service.
Regards Al;ison & John Moore
"Hi Lynne. thankyou for sat the cages were stunning, rod was brill. Thankyou you both for adding something special to our day. xxx"

Thank you for your message. I am so glad that the doves arrived home safely. Everyone was talking about them for hours after and I am sure that we, as a family, will be talking about them for years to come. Lorna & Daryl were amazed that the doves were there because Lorna had wanted this at the start of the planning but decided that other things had to come first. That is why I did it for them - because they wanted the significance to them in their wedding. To conclude, you would be surprised how many people came up to me after and asked me about you and where I had found you. They had never heard of the dove release before or knew of the significance of them. Your birds certainly were the icing on the cake!!!!

Hey Lynne, its Wayne. Not sure if you remember me, I planned my wife's wedding for a show entitled 'don't tell the bride'. Just wanted you to know you did an absolutely amazing job. Your doves truely made her day (as you could probably tell by her reaction. Our photographer has pictures of the dove release, we'll send you copies as soon as we get them through and we'll let you know when it's due to be aired. Thanks again for making our wedding day so memerable.

Hi Lynne, We just want to thank you so much for the part you played our wedding. I know you personally sacrificed a lot with the drive from Wales and the uncertainty of the weather, but it was great and is something that has distinguished our wedding, which is what we wanted. We wish you all the best for the future. Take care and God bless.

Dear Lynne, Thank you so much for bringing your beautiful doves to Ceri & Kierans wedding Aug 9th 2008 at Caerphilly Castle. Even though the dreadful weather prevented the birds from being liberated, you still managed to add a special something to the day. Everyone was able to admire the birds and Ceri & Kieran had some beautiful photographs taken holding the birds. In addition your very kind gesture that you will provide a pair of Doves to release for Ceir & Kierans's 1st wedding anniversary was very generous and much appreciated. Thank you so much for your kindness and contribution to a wonderful day.

Just a quick email to say how amazing it was for me and my new husband to be able to release two doves (Charlotte and Gavin) at our wedding on 1st August 2008. It really was one of the highlights of our day and all of our guest commented on how stunning it was to see the doves fly off together. Thank you so much - it really helped to make our fairytale wedding. Laura and Brad Boast. 01/08/08
Lynne & Rod, our Doves were absolutely beautifull and made our wedding celebrations. Thank you so much for the experience. Donna Peachey 25/07/08
Our wedding day was wonderful and your white doves made a very big impact on our day. But the biggest thanks was for letting us come and see and hold the birds in their home before our wedding. Not only did this give us confidence in holding the birds for our wedding day, but it was great to see they are not locked up 24/7 and are free to do what they want. They are in immaculate condition and obviously happy with their surroundings. We wish you both every success with your lovely business. Laura & James 28/07/08

Hi Lynne
Thank you so much, the impact of the dove was imense at the funeral and ment so much to me and my family, especially with the distance between us. The dove not wanting to leave is typical of my gran, she would have been worried about missing out! My brother rang me on his mobile and had it on loud speaker so that I could hear the realse, it meant so much to me. It's strange, my grandad's nickname for me was Fan and my nick name for my gran was Fanny so the name of the dove couldn't have been more appropriate. Thank you once again. Sarah.
(Sarah organized the Dove Release for her family to say farewell to her Gran at Taunton Crematorium as she lives in Austrailia. The Dove, Myfanwy, sat on the hands of sarahs father for a minute prior to taking flight for home)
Hi lynne and rod, THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH for your service and the release of "Mary" my mum's dove.. at her funeral in weston super mare ... on the 15/5/09 she had such a touching service, and the beautiful cage, and stunning white dove just made it so special... she would of been so proud ...the email after to say Mary got home safe and sound was even more amazing as it put my mind to rest.... your poem was simply beautiful, it felt like it was written for me to my mum, and for that lynne I thank you from the bottom of my heart, because as that time, I couldn't find the words I needed to express my emotions.. i'll miss my mum everyday, as i'm sure all your clients do who use your doves for such events .the loss of a loved one never heals truely, but your service makes the final goodbye special... a sense of pride filled my heart as Mary flew away... i imagined my mum's spirit was flying away with "mary"... FREE at last from the struggle of everyday life.. living with the condition she did. Well done rod, you were so lovely to me... THANK YOU both so much God bless you both...

Your company provided an outstanding service and gave us so much comfort when we needed it most. The doves were beautiful and the baskets decorated so pretty. The poem you read was really touching and meant everything to us. Many people asked about the company and we have recommended them to use you. You are both wonderful people and created a memory we will not forget. God Bless you both. Your words really helped us. You were both amazing and you could never know how much the doves meant to us. Hopefully we will meet you again and use your sevices in happier times." Best wishes, Lisamarie, Evelyn, Susan and Jackie Ayres (Cardiff) Jan 2008

Just wanted to let you know that you provided a service that did us proud at our sons memorial. He would have loved the birds, they were beautiful and you are a star!

Thank you so much for attending the funeral of our Angel, baby Charlie at Cefn Parc, Llantrisant. It was lovely and very much appreciated. The Gooch family Pontypridd.
Thanks Lynne for letting me know that Jack our Dove got home safely, we talked about him lots during the afternoon. Jack was a lovely touch to the day, and we were just amazed at his grace and beauty and the way in which he flew over Clive.
Its been quite a traumatic couple of weeks all round, but I wanted to thank you as Jack was an amazing comfort to Jean and her sons, Marc, Tim and Chris. We were overwhelmed at the number of people who came to say goodbye to Clive and who were also able to experience Jack.
Many thanks again Lynne, Jacob was really proud to release Jack too and I'm sure it is something he will never forget. Gill x
