"Providing Wings For Your Heart and Soul"

Company Policies

Release Policy and Terms of Agreement

We at Wings of Grace will only release well trained, well cared for birds which are banded with bands from either the American Racing Pigeon Union, International Federation, or permanent personalized bands with address and phone number of the breeder. We reserve the right to cancel the release at any time for the well being of our birds. This includes any acts of God such as thunderstorms, heavy winds, fog or snow.   All deposits and monies will be refunded in full should this occur.  Sometimes the weather is doing one thing at the release location and doing another at the home loft. Should we have to cancel the release due to bad weather, a full refund will be given, however, if the customer insists that we appear in bad weather and the release does not take place, the customer will forfeit the 50% deposit. Also any catastrophe that affects either the bird’s performance or appearance would warrant a cancellation by Wings of Grace.  This is an unlikely occurrence, however since everything is based upon living animals, anything can happen and we would notify you immediately.  Once again, since Wings of Grace is based upon living things, we cannot guarantee any certain performance from the birds.  Once the baskets are open we are no longer in control of the birds actions. Be it known also that Wings of Grace will not be responsible for any soiling of clothing. This has never happened but we still want to inform you of this in the event of such an occurrence.  We do not perform any releases at night, or within one hour of sunset.  We do not release the doves indoors under any circumstances. We do not ship our birds to individuals for self-releasing.  All releases performed by Wings of Grace will be accompanied by a qualified member of our staff that is dressed appropriately. We will only perform a dove release that is knowingly within our training limits and we are confident they will arrive home safely.  We will make every attempt to coordinate the release of the birds with the photographer of your choice so that the ceremony may be captured on film.  However, Wings of Grace will not be responsible for any reason, in the event that the release is not captured on film.  A 50% deposit of the full amount of all services is required at the time of booking your event.  The balance is due 14 days before the ceremony.  Wings of Grace will retain all deposits made on the release if the release is cancelled less than 30 days prior to the scheduled date.  In the event of any cancellation, excluding the above mentioned, the 50% deposit will be forfeited.

Note:  Please be as precise as possible in scheduling your release time.   A charge of $25.00 will be added to the fee for each additional half-hour past the scheduled release time.  This is due to the fact that our birds may be booked for other releases on the same day. We know that plans can change, so for your convenience, the release time can be altered up to one week before the event.

Payment Type Accepted:  Cash, Money Order, and Check.  There will be a $50.00 return check fee on all checks returned by the bank.
