A stylish handbag is an often overlooked wedding accessory. On your big day, you'll need somewhere to keep your lipstick, compact, tissue, and mints. A beautiful handbag can perfectly complement your dress and not look out of place. Here's how to choose a handbag for your wedding:

  1. Consider the style. In many ways, choosing a handbag for your wedding is a lot like choosing a handbag for any other occasion at which you will be wearing a formal gown. It should be small and delicate, not large or bulky. You won't need to fit very many items inside.

  2. Consider the color of your dress. If your dress is white, match it with a white or pale pearl handbag. For off-white dresses, match a pearl or ivory handbag. If your dress color is hard to match exactly, consider a beaded handbag. If your dress required alterations, there may also be enough material for a seamstress to make you a custom handbag that will match perfectly.

  3. Consider the fabric. If your dress is silk, the handbag you choose should be silk or satin. If you have velvet or lace trim on your gown, train, or veil, select a velvet or lace-trimmed handbag. Small beaded handbags are also appropriate for many dress styles. If you wish to use the handbag again for other occasions, look for one in an easy-to-clean fabric. Usually beaded bags are more versatile for non-wedding occasions. You can even choose a multicolored beaded clutch that includes the colors of your gown and wedding d cor.

  4. Consider the ornamentation. If your dress has rhinestones, beads, or embroidery, choose a handbag for your wedding that matches these details. Any metal on the handbag should match the jewelry you plan to wear on your wedding day, whether you are going with silver or gold accents.

  5. Consider the straps. Many women choose a small clutch without straps for their wedding day. Other choices include a mini-bag with tiny straps for your hand, or one with larger straps that can be placed on your shoulder. Whichever you choose, make sure that it works with your dress style and is comfortable for you.

  6. Try it with your dress. At least once before the big day, try on your wedding gown with your shoes, veil, handbag, and any other accessories so you can be sure they work well together.

While your handbag will not be included in the ceremony like your other wedding accessories and attire, it is still an important part when purchasing your wedding ensemble. This formal handbag should match the style of your dress and be the perfect size and shape for you to carry before and after the wedding ceremony.
