I'm getting married in 5 weeks and I'd love to get a gorgeous evening bag for my big day:rolleyes:. My dress is a very simple A-line, ivory silk strapless and I don't necessarily want an ivory bag to match it, though I'm not opposed to it either.

What would you get if you were me? Thanks for your help!

Congrats on getting married!
I'd recommend a metallic or jewel coloured clutch. :yes:
I found these beautiful clutches at net-a-porter.

Congrats! I'm just a few weeks behind you, and I don't have a bag yet either. :yes:

With your dress, I'd recommend something simple - an elaborate bag, even a small one, would look out of place. I also suggest a bag with some kind of strap, so you can carry other stuff (such as your glass of champagne!) or shake hands with people while holding it. Luckily, most clutches come with a shoulder chain you can tuck in if you want. Perhaps one of these?

Congratulations on your wedding!!!

My suggestion would be to get a small evening clutch in the color of your bridesmaids dresses...or rather, the color scheme you have chosen for your wedding. I think that would make a nice touch.

If not, there is also this one, its great...

I totally agree. I think a little clutch the color of the bridesmaids dresses would be gorgeous. I think it would really feel cohesive and beautiful without being TOO bridal...:yes:

No bag suggestion, but definitely get something you can use again after the wedding. You really don't get to use it that much on the wedding day. You are not going to be holding it; your BM will probably be the one carrying it for you most of the time.

great idea! i got a really gorgeous, vintage-looking pink satin evening bag for my wedding, and i adored it! def. my favorite wedding accessory :smile:

my bag was by lulu guinness - and i still adore it! what about this one, that's currently available?? it'd be gorgeous with your dress, and will definitely be a bag you can use over again!

another designer someone suggested above is lauren merkin...while a lot of her clutches have a style that i think might not be formal enough for a wedding, i LOVE the charlotte clutch - it's available in gold or platinum at fengjunk, and you can get 20% off & free shipping with WINT07.

Santi makes some cute bridal type bags. If you're carrying the bag while wearing your wedding dress, it must match the color and style of your dress. For the reception, when you change, a clutch would be perfect or something with a small chain or strap.
