Destination package starts at
$12,500.00
The destination package is designed to fulfill a popular new trend called "destination funeral". Much like a destination wedding this package is for launching from a location of your choice to celebrate the life of a loved one. Friends gathering in the desert, a sunrise ceremony on the beach, a picnic by a favorite stream or a party at a favorite location, simply lets us know and we'll be there! This is a creative package, custom planned either by the family or by a professional service that we can recommend. Mesoloft will coordinate a location that allows us to safely launch/recover the balloon and participate in the service.
