Do you think this would make a nice bridesmaids gift? Think maybe good for the wedding and can be used again

    I would have no need for that after the wedding (or really for the wedding if I wouldn't be carrying it down the aisle).

    It's very bride-y :) As a BM gift, I must admit it wouldnt thrill me.
    Where did you find it tho?? I love it :) would go perfect with my dress!

    I wouldn't have any use for a white evening bag, either.
    The bm gifts should not be accessories that you want them to use for your wedding. Buy each of them something that suits their individual interests.

    It screams wedding to me and just overall isn't my style. I wouldn't have any use for it after the wedding, or maybe even during depending on where I can leave my stuff and carrying flowers down the aisle.

    yeah I have to agree with PPs - It's really not my style so I would never use it again after the wedding.

    But you know your BMs - would THEY like it?  have you ever seen them carry something like it?  If you picked it because it's their taste then go for it.  If you picked it bc it will look pretty with their BM dresses I'd keep looking...

    I have agree that it screams wedding and bride.  The gift you give your girls is what you would buy them for a birthday or Christmas.  Nothing to use for the wedding, and the idea that they have to match is something the wedding industry has cooked up.

    I didn't mean for that to sound mean or snarky - hope it didn't.  I just see wedding when I look at that purse.

    Nope.  Sorry.

    Thanks everyone! Not the responses I was expecting but it was the responses I needed. I'll stick to personal individual gifts.
