Raising butterflies to release at my wedding?
I want to release butterflies at my wedding, but they're so expensive to have them shipped live! As a kid I raised butterflies in those science kits you can buy. Has anyone done that to release butterflies at their wedding? How did it work out?
What a beautiful idea...
My friend did that... it was really special 
Make sure to start with more than you will need because some will die. If you are able to have 10 or more - that would be wonderful...
But you will have 1,000 things on your mind that day and will need to trust a friend to handle all the details of that... have a camera ready ... Congrats and God bless you!
