Best Handbags for Wedding Guests. A beautiful handbag can be the perfect addition to your wedding guest outfit. In fact, some might say it’s imperative. A handbag is essential for stashing those important little items that you may need throughout the day, and it provides the perfect finishing touch to your fancy finery. A darling crossbody purse or a shimmery little clutch punctuates your outfit and draws all the separate elements together in one fell swoop.

So in the midst of all your wedding attire planning, deciding on a great handbag is crucial. And so today, I have rounded up 15 outfits with handbags to show you just how you can rock yours. These handbags will go with pretty much any wedding outfit so don’t stress if you can’t make up your mind! There’s a little something here for everyone.

Best Wedding Guest Handbags For This Year

The best handbag for a wedding outfit is one that coordinates well with the rest of your attire; isn’t overly big; is a little fancier than your everyday purse, and has some embellishment or detailing that elevates it to semi-formal status. But before you relegate yourself to diamante encrusted clutches, keep in mind that a summer wedding differs greatly from a winter wedding, and what you wear to each will vary! So a bamboo birdcage purse or a rattan-style bag can work for a summer wedding outfit (especially a beach one!) but definitely not a winter one. Keep this in mind as you go through these pictures!
