Whilst having a chat with one of my BMs I said I was looking into fur shrugs for them She said not to bother as we would only be outside for a bit then said so have you seen the bags you want us to have While she is happy to buy her owm I hadnt even considered bags Do I need to Also I feel really mean not getting them shrugs but BM made the point that they cover the best part of dress (COAST CELIA in Navy - Bargin from Pre Loved!) Confused as to what I need to buy now!!!

Cant what ever they do need to bring be given to someone else to look after or left in a car till the reception when they will need money etc?

    We're getting married in February and I hadn't even thought of handbags. May get them shrugs but they won't be going outside.

    I never bought my BM's bags. I bought them all a pair of shoes each that they liked.

    Why does a Bridesmaid need a handbag anyway? What would be in it? - I've been a bridesmaid and never had one. To be honest I think they are more of hassle than not having one.

    Hi Kat

    We've covered a few winter weddings where the bride & bridesmaids haven't had shrugs, and they've always been so cold for the group photos even when we've done them super quickly. Worth getting them something (& for yourself) if your budget will stretch.

    Well i paid £10 for each, and given that they've been worn, i'd be willing to sell them for £8 each. - £30 the lot! Free P+P!

    My shawl was a little more expensive though. But i'm a bit sentimental, so i won't be selling it as my mummy bought me it.

    I bought my bridesmaids handbags... They were just little clutches for their lipgloss, phones, moneys etc. They didnt carry them down the aisle or anything they just used them in the evening I think. You dont have to though!
