Delicate Bags & Purses for the Bride on Her Wedding Day

When it comes to the “must-bring” list on the day of the wedding, most brides worry over the bigger items: the marriage license, the veil, the family heirloom, and so on. Fortunately, someone of importance usually carries those items either in hand or in a big box or envelope, but what to do with the small items? Petite things, such as lipstick, foundation, and mascara for touch-ups, earrings you might want to switch out, and even your phone may get left behind lest they have some kind of vessel in which to be transported. It’s at this time that you may want to consider a small purse for your big day.
There are elegant clutches out there to match any bridal style, whether you prefer designs that are heavily detailed or plain and simple. These small bags are perfect for your personal items, and won’t clash with the motif of the day. During the ceremony, you can leave the purse with your mother, father, aunt, or another close relative that will be seated nearby the altar.
Before you try to stash all of your makeup into your maid of honor’s bag – you’ll likely forget them during the fervor of the event and she might accidentally take them home – browse through the beautiful styles featured below.
