Did you use a bridal purse on your wedding day?

I have lipstick and a mirror that I probably want at the table. Should I get a bridal purse, or just have my MOH hold it? My MOH actually made me a wedding day survival kit in a cute bag that looks like a corset, but it's hot pink and black. Can I just leave that on my table? Or would that look wierd?

Sorry, silly random wedding question!

I don't think I would put that on the table if it doesn't go with your color scheme. Everyone will be taking pics of you stiting there.

I am getting a small purse that will hopefully match my shoes, just for the little things u mentioned- tissues, lipstick, powder. I don't want to go searching for my MOH if I need something. But I think I will also have my survival kit stuff in the bridal suite just in case I need something.

I wouldnt want to worry about a purse.
I kept whatever I needed in the bridal suite. I retouched my makeup after CH and I was fine. I think asking your MOH is fine or if you're having a DOC, you can always have her hold onto a few things for you.

I'm not going to use a purse, but you could always put that one by your feet, so that it's nearby if you need it, but out of sight.

Actually, the hot pink goes perfectly with my color scheme (spring brights--pinks and greens), but will it look wierd to have a corset purse on the table?

yup! I used it for lipgloss/lipstick, compact and a few other items. I also put the cards in it.

Did you just keep it on your sweetheart table? You didn't make your entrance with it, did you?

I kept it in the bridal suite (I got married at the hall) until the reception. One of my BM's brought it down for me and I kept near my feet under the sweetheart table.

whatever you do, don’t forget to re-apply your lipstick a lot!!

I swear that is the only reason I need a purse, to keep the lipstick in. I actually bought 2 lipsticks. One for the brial suite and one for my purse, so that I won't lose my only lipstick and regret it later. But I love the color so I'll wear it all the time after the wedding.

That’s pretty much all I used it for – and SO glad I did that and the cards!

I'm doing the same. Everything will be in my bridal suite. My makeup artist will be "following me" for the day so she will do any touchups
