Very hard, considering how short butterflies lifespans are. However there are plenty of catalogs and online sites that you can order them from. Or, if you know far enough ahead of time, you can order them in cacoons and raise them. Its's fairly easy, we have 4th graders raise them at our school every year. Several hundred would look like alot when released.

It's very hard to catch different varieties of butterflies let alone 3,000. If you stick to one or two different kinds ie Monarch or Painted Lady you can find plenty of them to buy on line or through a vender. Go to the grocery store or local book store, buy a wedding magazine or a few if you want more variety and flip through the pages until you see a vender who will sell and ship live butterflies to you for the special wedding day. These venders make a living out of selling live butterflies to be released after the "I Do's" I've added a link to google that has websites where you can find butterflies to release so that you can see what I'm talking about. As driven as you might be to run down 3,000 butterflies I just think buying them might make the wedding day go a bit smoother.

Being as it's fall, your bridesmaids should definitely take advantage of the homecoming dresses that are in the stores. They can look wonderful without the price tag of a bridal boutique. I like gold in fall weddings as well as light pink. Some times chocolate brown works wonders too. It all just depends on what will look flattering against your dress and against the complexions and features of your bridesmaids. Since distance seems to be a problem, maybe you could find the dresses and send them pictures. If they like them, they can send you the money and you can purchase them? Like some of the previous posters had said, if you allowed them to pick their own style of dress instead of all having the same one, that would allow more freedom especially for the price range.

I would use silk or paper butterflies and a wind machine. Break two bottles with one stone: no butterflies will die and the guest get to 'catch' a pretty souvenir of the day.

DON'T DO THAT!!! What is so romantic about killing 3,000 butterflies??? You will end up killing those butterflies that are quite possibly already in danger! It would be impossible to replace them. Besides with the divorce rate what it is these days ..............

Impossible unless you are somewhere where they raise or collect buttrflies. Otherwise, you very seldom see butterflies these days in Pennsylvania anyway.
