Dolly Bags

wedding purse

The wedding purse is the american name for the dolly bag or as originally called the Dorothy bag.This was carried by the bridesmaid to carry the confetti in. Throwing confetti is probably a relic of former fertility rites. Variations occur throughout the world; flowers, petals, grain, cakes, sugar almonds and rice are all used. 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.
