I wasn't able to see what the others looked like and i am sure they are just what you need, but you can always get no frills (usually plain wood - so they would need to be painted) bridhouses (probably for cheap) at a home store or nursery, and also Home Depot or Loews. A nursery may be willing to make a deal with you, especially since they will probably have to order (since they usually only keep a few in stock). i am a bit of a nature freak and we have several in our backyard (one i just bought at the supermarket on clearance for $3.99) that are just really plain. I think the most i paid for the nicest one was about $18, but like I said, most often they are much cheaper than that (you shouldn't pay more than $10 for a plain wooden one).
I think this is such a great idea. Hopefully someone will help you because it seems like it could be some work, but your guests will be so happy because you have put real effort into it! I love the wedding chapel picture that you posted!

Re: Where can I buy birdhouses?
I assume your doing the birdhouse thing to tie in with the feather theme right? Well if you cant find them for cheap enough, here is one of my favorite favor ideas:
You can buy birds nests from floral supply: and put robin's egg blue dragees inside
Just an idea :D

Stef that is funny I was thinking about that but unsure that it was enough for a favor, I was thinking of doing the nests as placecards
