    hi all, iv got just over three weeks to go and looking at handbags, im thinking an art deco style blingy one but mother and bms say dolly bag, a dolly bag would be easier to carry but would rather have clutch. What style is everyone else having?? xx

    See what goes with the dress, if your dress is blingy already then a dolly bag would go, or if your dress has minimal bling then a deco bag would go. My auntie is making a bag for me which will have little handles so I can carry it on my wrist (if that makes sense...)

    Seeing as you probably won't be carrying it that much I would go with a style that could be used after the day. At the last wedding I went to the bride had a clutch but someone else was holding it for most of the day.

    i didn't bother with anything. i left my phone in my suitcase at the hotel where we stayed as it was where our reception was. anything i needed to gave to BM in the morning and she gave to me later which was mainly my lipgloss lol

    Dolly bags for me and bridesmaid.

    From the bay - really cute with crystals on

    Went for dolly bag as clutch would be put down and forgotten about plus its another accessory to tie in the colours of our theme.

    I didn't have a bag at all, I didn't need anything with me. I didn't even bring my phone, I left it at home. I had a lipgloss in my mum's bag and that was it

    The greatest thing you'll ever learn
    is just to love and be loved in return

    I'll have house key as Im last to leave the house, probably mobile, lip gloss and definately tissues in my dolly bag.

    Bridesmaid will more than likely have the same (minus the key) in hers.
