How It Works: Step by Step

Step 1: Keeping the Surprise

For maximum impact, we recommend keeping the barn owl ring bearer a complete secret from your guests.

This ensures the reveal and the owl's flight down the aisle are truly magical surprises.

 

 

Step 2: Our Discreet Arrival

We arrive at your venue around one hour before your ceremony is scheduled to begin. Our team remains discreet and blends in, so the secret is preserved until just the right moment.

Step 3: Quick Training for the Recipient

Before the ceremony, we take just five to ten minutes to guide whoever will receive the rings,often the best man or a trusted member of your wedding party.

We show them exactly how to stand and what to expect, so the handover is smooth and stress-free.

 

 

Step 4: The Magical Delivery

As the ceremony unfolds, our trained barn owl is released and flies directly down the aisle, delivering your rings in a safe, enchanting, and perfectly timed moment that everyone will remember.

Step 5: Photographs and Guest Interaction

After the ring delivery, our owl is available for up to an hour for photos and gentle interaction with you and your guests.

This adds further enjoyment and gives everyone a chance to get up close with a beautiful bird of prey.
