Purses are an item we just can’t do without, whether you prefer something more practical or something glamorous we all have at least one purse in our closet. Your wedding day is no exception, in fact your wedding is a day you want to look and feel gorgeous as all eyes will be on you and what your are wearing.

It is therefore important to us ladies that on our special day we have a wedding purse that compliments our whole wedding outfit and makes us feel a million dollars.

There are two types of purses in particular that are popular with brides, firstly because they are practicable and secondly the styles compliment any style of dress.

The first type of wedding handbag that is a popular choice for brides is a clutch purse. Clutch purses are longer that they are wide and tall and are available in many types of materials such as polyester, silks and satins.

A clutch purse is known as a formal style of purse due to its smaller more sophisticated sizing. Although these purses are small enough to carry in ones hand they are still spacious enough to carry all those important items a bride will want with her on her wedding day such as makeup items and tissues. Some even come with the added bonus of having detachable straps.

The second type of purse that is very popular is a drawstring purse. These purses are compact in size too so they won’t outshine your dress, they are typically made from soft materials such as satin and often have detailing such as gems and embroidery. This purse usually has a small drawstring top which creates a gathering of the material. To carry this bag brides will simply loop the drawstring handle over their wrist for a sleek chic look.
