Past and Present Brides:POLL: Are you using a purse on your wedding day?
Original post by sophisticat13
Hi ladies...I was wondering if it is worth it to bother with a purse on my wedding day. It seems like everything you will need can fit into a tote bag??? What are/did you ladies doing?
Thank you!!!!!!

I didnt use a purse. I didnt really have anything I needed with me all the time. I had a big duffel bag which I left in the bridal suite.

No I did not have a purse the day of....
we had a big gift bag size bag with things I would need in it. I didn't want the hassle of carrying and worrying about the purse.

We are actually getting ready AT my hall before the church, so everything I need will already be in the bridal suite. And I figure if I need the bathroom or whatever, I'll be using the one up there and can freshen up my makeup and all at that time. So, no, I am not carrying a purse.

I'm totally undecided - I think if I see a cute purse I'll go for it, otherwise not bother. All of our stuff will be in the bridal suite anyway. And FH has pockets for lipstick.

My cousin really wants to lend me her bridal purse as my 'something borrowed' so I'm going to use it, even t hough I planned to use Jessies bracelet as my something borrowed. I didn't want to hurt her feelings though!

I brought my tote with most of my junk to the hotel to get ready
And then brought a little purse that came with my dress. In it I put a little chapstick just in case, & my cellphone (which you never know when you will need). Actually I needed the cellphone to give info to someone traveling separately .
But I could have easily thrown it into the tote too but I didn't want a big tote at my feet in the limo. My dress was big enough!

I brought a lil purse with me with my ciggies , lighter, some cash, lip gloss, my cellie and my license. Then again, I have this thing about always being prepared for god knows what! So I kinds felt more comfortable having one around.
With that said....my Mom, MOH, Bridal attendant and limo driver seemed to carry it most of the night!! So dont think you have to carry it everywhere.

Not using one. I don't want to worry about where I leave it. Also, I can't think of all that much I would need in there besides lipgloss. I'm just going to put all my essentials and emergency stuff in a big bag and leave it in the bridal suite.

Thanks so much ladies....it sounds as if you don't need one unless you want to for sentimental (or other) reasons. If I find one I love I will buy it, but I won't stress it if I don't!!!
BTW...I love all the purses in this post!!!!

I think I will give my sister, my MOH, the few things I might need - lipgloss, blush, camera (yes I want my own!) - to hold in her purse (I already bought her one that matches her dress). Anything else I would need will be in a tote bag in the bridal suite.
