Joy: Our Wedding – List of Etsy Vendors

Hello all! I’m back with a list of the Etsy sellers that we used.

Joy: Our Wedding – Reception Table Centerpieces

Here’s a look at the centerpieces that we utilized at our wedding! We used the following items for each table, as well as the cost per item: – 1-2 birdhouses (depending on size) from my mother’s collection.
