I'am having a debate with my mom, card box or envelope purse. I feel like a purse is saying i know who gave me a gift and who didn't. what is everyones opinion?
I would go with a card box...I feel it would be a lot easier in terms of knowing where it is at all times, not forgetting it, etc.
Definitely a card box, I feel like a purse is a little dated.
I'm not bothering to get a card box, so a purse it'll be for me. I'll be giving the envelopes to someone else to hold anyway so I don't plan to be carrying it around.

I like the box better bc I always get nervous as a guest holding onto the card until I get a chance to give it to the bride and groom.
I would go with the card box too. I wouldnt want to carry that purse around
A card box seems to be the thing to do......If you make one just don't make it too small!!!!!!! Good luck in your choice.....
You'll know who gave you a gift and who didn't when you open up everything after the wedding. I just think that purses are a little bit tacky. Like, the only reason I'm walking around and talking to you is to get my money. With a cardbox they can go up and put it in there while you can talk to your guests and they won't feel like you just want the present.

I think a card box is better. Is more decorative and is a nice touch I think. A purse would be annoying and could be lost easily.
I was going to make a photo cube card box for the wedding but FH was nervous about how safe it is. Then I was just reading the BHB's posting about the cardbox being stolen!!! I can see how it might be easy for someone to run off with it...even if it does have a lock on it. So now I'm debating doing anything or just having FH's brother in charge of taking the checks and running them to the car periodically.
