I want one for lip gloss and maybe powder and just because I love purses.

I will not carry it down the asile, someone will hold it for me. And I will have it at the reception to have stuff in. Where we are having dinner is really far away from the room.

But, you are totally right, its not needed at all. I just want one.

right more for the reception... lipgloss, mirror, powder....

same for me, I want powder, lipstick or gloss, maybe some perfume, (I love to replenish my perfume) I'll probably have my mom take it to the ceremony for me and I'll have it for the reception.

My MOH and I talked about someone else carrying the things I may need in their purse since we are getting married on the resort.

 

I too love purses and I would love this one:

Perfect Details;handbags:handbags for wedding, Wedding handbags, Wedding Accessories, Bridal Accessories, beaded handbag, evening bag, wedding purse, bridal purse, bridal handbag

 

So I haven't totally discounted the idea, but it is a lot for a purse I won't use very often...

I agree! I don't know if I should really have one or not.
If I did buy this one, I could use it again
okay okay, I could also use that much money on something else.

I wasn't sure if I would use a purse, not sure what I would put in it, thanks for the suggestions, it's a good idea to have powder and lip gloss. I have my grandmother's white silk and bead purse, it's small with a silver short chain strap, it would be perfect. Thanks ladies, so many good ideas on here!

It is not a strange question at all. I had a purse that my mom bought for me and I never saw it once. I left our room which was very close to the wedding venue, and when I wanted to freshen up before the reception I just went to my room. After that I didn't need anything. None of my girlfriends carried purses, afterall it was one of the joys of having the wedding where we were all staying. I asked Everton to put my DR.Pepper lip gloss (the perfect natural lip colour for the beach) in his pocket, it was all I needed all night.

since i don't wear makeup (well, on my wedding day i guess i did!) i didn't need it for makeup. but i did carry my insulin and chap stick (my personal addiction!) in there - and i think that's about it. someone else kept an eye on it until the reception, and then it sat on my table, then someone else kept an eye on it again - probably kelley or Nicole (WCs). since we weren't at a resort - or anywhere close to civilization, to be honest, i needed somewhere to put the "essentials," namely, my insulin. and it was really an excuse to buy a cute accessory - i'm not normally an accessory girl!
