| The
modern use of the dolly bag (known as a wedding
purse in the USA) is as a convenience wedding accessory for carrying
some of the bride's or bridesmaids personal effects. Although in past times these were created from a singular colour material it is now becoming common place for the bags to be in colours with a particular interest of either the bride or groom,for instance the association of a favourite football team or produced in colours to match bridesmaid dresses etc. |
