You can even snag a custom set of letters to spell out your name, wedding hashtag, or a message from the Upside Down.

A new spin on “happy tears” ceremony hankies

Kim and Liz are adorable nerds who love themes, dancing, and making things themselves, including this “happy tears” ceremony hankies display. it’s pretty much guaranteed that someone on your guest list is a wedding crier (that would be me), so having handkerchiefs on hand is a great way to keep everyone’s making from free-flowing down their face.
