~*~ Bridal Purse ~*~

Do we really have to pick a bag? would I really miss something if I am not carrying a bag because I m planning not to have one :hmmm:

For that bag, I couldn't imagine anyone I know buying it. However, I do know quite a few ladies that buy original designer bags for that cost around that range. But then again they are bankers, self-financed elite, self-made entrepreneurs, wives of the wealthy etc. How about you?

As I've said, AR is my vote. The question is what would you buy for a bridal bag...

Re: Mother of all wedding bags...

i'd probably buy a clutch from aldo's or nine west or stores like that. atleast i know it's a good thing, and it's not some random designer from pakistan. show banani hai to banda bahar ka clutch pakray, na keh some random designer from pakistan.

Ok! Done. No pick. Thank you!:slight_smile:

whats been happening here is a topic growing and morphing organically into a conversation - you shouldn't be taking people's price preferences so personally. to you an AR bag is worth every penny; to me, i'd rather have a day bag over a clutch any day regardless of price, and to still others, a nine west is the best option of all of the above. my point is, you can't regulate people's conversations to the last letter.
if some are asking if you're being paid by AR, its more as a joke than anything else because you seem to be promoting her so heavily not only in this thread but other threads too. fair enough, you're a fan, but most of us do read more than one thread and repeatedly reading almost identical posts about sheeba/AR/whatever/whomever is sort of annoying.... and, from past experience, i can say is generally a tactic employed by those posters who have something to sell, and consequently, are here for that purpose and not for conversation.... there are specific marketplace threads for those who want to promote and sell products.
so. you're new and maybe didn't realise, now you know :)

aaaand to get back on topic: i didn't carry anything as a bride - my maid of honor took care of it all.

Re: Mother of all wedding bags...

my wedding "bag" was more of a decoration piece than anything else, pretty much useless afterwards. but a good evening bag is nic, but i wud never pay that much for one. hell i'd even think 10000 times before buying aldo/nine west =//

Re: Mother of all wedding bags...

my wedding bag is gonna be same as my wedding dress..matching kam n colors..

for casual use my fiance has bought me a Channel leather bag from uk n a bit fancy purse thing from dior..

i have bought a clutch for Rs. 1100.. from dolmen mall ..

bakke i prefer buying local stuff from karachi.. visit dolmen mall, forum etc.. u will get some really coool stuff in the range of Rs. 800-2000.. i personally dont like spending too much on bags..

mai itne jaldi bore ho jate hon eik purse se so i keep on changing almost every month.. iss leye spending 6000rs or 8000rs is way tooo much for me.

Re: Mother of all wedding bags...

i will try to post pics of my purses, clutches.. jo mere khayal se kisi bhi designer bag se 100 times bahtar hey hian. :D

You are sort of right but I asked a 'thread question' and that's how I started the 'mother of all bridal bags' question - the fact there were various posts out there already. Put my own preference (advertising as you stated) down and asked others for what they would do - that's all (read carefully). Instead of answering, ppl responded to my choice and I felt attacked :(... e.g., you must be a rich girl!

I don't agree with me 'advertising' - am just passionate about my buys. I'm wondering why it is that other ppl on other threads did not get bombarded and am thinking this forum is basically for a bunch of ppl who all know each other! :)

Good point about maid of honour - shall take that route and gift her one.

Thank you for actually answering the the point of the thread!

Do you mind me asking - have you ordered your bag? And if so, what is the price range for a matching bag? Or do they includ it in complete jorah price. Tks for any info...

Re: Mother of all wedding bags...

^ price of matching bag n matching shoes is included in my jorah price.

lol no i didn't gift her one- i meant as my MoH, she took care of everything i needed so i didn't have to worry about any details and/or where my lipstick was so i could retouch it.

OMG... Nice ad :D

Wedding Purse -- Is it necessary?

Hi,

For my wedding, I plan on not having a purse b/c I think it just gets in the way in pictures and I don't want to be holding it the whole time in pics.

I also will probably not use the wedding purse again and haven't been able to find one to match my suit.

I'm going to enter holding a bouquet versus a purse.

Is this okay? or is it weird not to have a bridal purse?

opinions please as it will not be difficult for me to get one

Thank you !!!!

Re: Wedding Purse -- Is it necessary?

i don't think its necessary.... if your makeup is done properly, you probably wont even need any lipstick touch up's, and the people around you will probably have plenty of tissues.

Re: Wedding Purse -- Is it necessary?

I don't think it's necessary. Often it gets in the way. Just have a friend or cousin or sister ready to give you tissues or reapply lipstick, but as SGC, you probably won't need it.

Re: Wedding Purse -- Is it necessary?

i had a purse, most lenghas come with them, had my essentials in there, but when i was on stage i just put it next to me, u couldnt see it, but it was there if i needed a touch up, some aunties can kiss ur face with dark lipstick on lol

I agree with the other girls, it's not necessary to have a purse. If you need anything you can always ask your brides maid.

Re: Wedding Purse -- Is it necessary?

i hate the purses that come with the dress they are so ugly. when my sister got engaged she bought a clutch from here (usa) and took it back to pakistan. i think you use the bag to put the money in that people give rather than holding the money in your hand because it can fall. by the way the bouquet sounds really cute and my sister is going to do the same on her wedding.

Re: Wedding Purse -- Is it necessary?

everyone gave the monetary gifts for us to my mom. she collected them all and gave them to us the next morning.
