I ordered 6 for my bridesmaids in a variety of colors (Black, Brown, Bright Pink, Light Blue, Green & Navy). I disagree with previous reviews about the light colors. The Light Blue tote I ordered is easy to read and shows up well.The size is perfect since I am using it as a gift bag and it can be re-used as a lunch sack, an everyday purse, or a toiletry case. The canvas is actuality of a better quality than I expected based on the sale price [$] I would recommend these to anyone who looks at them twice. You will not be disappointed.

I got these bags knowing very well they would be small, which they are. At the same time they were on a great sale and had free personalization. I got one for each of my bridesmaids, flower girl and myself (with my new initials!) They are the perfect size for adults to fit a pair of flip flops or flats, some travel toiletries and makeup for the wedding. For my flower girl I will put some small girly stuff and activities to keep her occupied at the wedding (if needed, she's 4). These are not a main gift for my girls, more of just another cute little something to show them just how much I appreciate them! I attached a picture of the bags, they are navy with sage green for the adults and pink for the flower girl. The sage green came out really light in the picture but is really subtle and classic in real life (if you want it to be extremely visible, go for a darker color).

Great!!
By Melissa
from Sacramento, CA
I ordered these for my flower girls and they are perfect! I was worried because of the negative reviews, but they turned out better than I could have even imagined! The embroidery is fantastic and the colors matched perfectly with what was depicted online. You can tell that they are good quality. I read the reviews and I knew that they were small before I ordered them. They would be silly for a grown woman, but these are perfect for my 4 year old flower girls!
Great for a Flower Girl
By Marie
from Kansas City, Mo
This bag is really cute and perfect for my 6yr old Flower Girl. The handles are brown (to coordinate with the fall colors of the wedding) and we personalized it with her initials in pink (her favorite color). It is perfect for what I want to put in it, I just hope she doesn't grow out of it too fast. I wish the same design came in a size between this one at the "LARGE" one.
So Disappointed!!!
By Shan

About Me Bride, Parent Of Bride/Groom
EXTREMELY SMALL!! I ordered this for my 11 yr old neice.. so dissapointed as it's way too small for her. Would be more appropriate for a 5 yr old flower girl.. maybe? Very disatisfied & of course can't return..
Perfect for my flower girl!
By Mego
from Lenexa, KS
This one is for my flower girl and it will fit her perfectly. She is 6. I had put that i wanted greens straps and pink lettering, but i got green both. It didnt turn out bad, just not what i asked for. All in all happy with the product.

Dissapointed!!!
By Mai
from Florida
I just got them and was terribly dissapointed. I had read the reviews but decided to go ahead thinking they couldn't be that small based on even other reviews...but they are tiny!! I wanted something my bridesmaids could use after and I couldn't see anyone using them again since they look like a bag for kids!! In addition, I ordered them all lavender and they came in different variations of lavender, they don't even match! Not sure what to do and might have to spend more money on buying something and I'm already on a tight budget.
Too Small
By nothappy
from SC
I did not plan on this size of these bags being so small. They were not what I planned and my bridesmaids are not going to be able to use them except for small items.

Perfect Tote!
By The Future Mrs. Brooks
from Charlotte, NC
After reading reviews, I was skeptical as to how "small" this bag would actually be. Needless to say, I was very happy to receive to the end product. The bags looks great!! Monograms are centered and of quality detail. The size is perfect for their "Bridesmaid emergency kits" plus some. I'm so excited to give these to my girls!!

Very Dissapointing.
By Courtney
from Port St Lucie, Florida
I was so excited to get these bags in as I am planing a destination wedding and my intent was to use these bags as welcome bags for my bridesmaids. I planned and on filling them with beach towels, cameras and other beach related things. However, when I recieved them I was mortified. These would not be considered a "tote" bag if a five year old were using them. Small really is not even the word to describe these. I also chose to have them done in the light pink, which turned out to be more of a bubble gum pink then the tasteful pink I had hoped for. I am not the type of person to review a product but these were just so below my expectations I am hoping I can save someone else the dissapointment.
Bridesmaid Tote Bag
By JuneBride
from Orange County, Ca
I bought this bad for my Bridesmaids gifts. It was way smaller than I expected. I ordered them in each girls favorite color thinking they could use the bag to the beach. Instead it's just a cute keepsake. I would recommend based on sale price and free personalization.
Very Unhappy
By Unhappy Bride
from Philadelphia, Pa
i was planning on using these bags to put the gifts i bought for my bridesmaids. I now am 2 weeks out until my wedding and i have to start from scratch. I cant return because the personalizations and I am stuck with them. I am not even giving them to my girls. Very unhappy and hoping the rest of my order doesnt disappoint me this badly.
Cute!!
By Katie
from Arlington, VA
I saw the reviews for these being real small but I figured I'd order these for my bridesmaids and get the next size up for my matron of honor. I just received them in the mail last night and aside from a slight spelling error in the name of one of my girls, in my opinion, they are the perfect size! Great for stuffing additional gifts! [...]

GREAT BUY! GET IT ON SALE!
By Future Mrs. Speight
from Wilmington, NC
This bags are great! I waited til they went on sale and bought them for half of the price ([$])! I bought six purple (my wedding color) and had each of my girls' initials monogrammed on them. Then, I stuffed them with a magazine, a koozie, lotion, nail polish, lipstick, and a lemonade drink mix. I was very impressed and excited to give these bags to my girls when asking them to be a part of the wedding. It took a little longer than expected for them to be personalized [...], but overall I was satisfied with this purchase.
Great gift by itself or with others
By Jean
from PA
I used these smaller bags to hold gifts for friends who helped out in my wedding to smaller scales than my bridesmaids (readers, etc) who I got the bigger version of this for. It's not only a great gift in and of itself, but I also used it to hold other gifts. The size was very accurate compared to the product description. I marked off that one of it's benefits was that it was affordable, which it is when on sale, but I would definitely call it over-priced when it is not on sale, so I'd wait for one of those to come around before purchasing.
very cute!

This is the perfect size! I just got it in the mail and now I want one for myself lol!! It's adorable!!
Very Awesome!
By Britty
from AR
The picture looks like the bags would be very small, and I expected that after reading some of the reviews. I ordered them anyway, and when I got them I was so pleased! The bag is the perfect sized for about 5 or 6 good size bridesmaid gifts. In the bags I was able to fit (a scarf, heart cookie cutters, personalized journals, bookmarks, and a make-up bag). It was exactly the right size!!! I am a pleased customer!
Great tote bag
By Eager bride to be
from Vineland, NJ
I got these for my bridesmaids and they are great! I got each personalized with my girl's names and their favorite color. I plan on putting their gifts in them as well. They are the perfect size for gift bags. Great buy!!
Happy with Choice
By Bubbling Bride :)
from Jersey City, NJ
I bought one of these for my flower girl and my ring bearer. I put their name on the outside and I plan to fill it with fun treats for the reception so that they will be intertained while spending time with so many adults. They are smaller than I expected but very cute. They appear well made. The only thing I wish was different would be if the white background was a little whiter and not so off white. Overall I am pleased.
Very small!
By kmc0827
from Baton Rouge, LA
I bought these to give as my bridesmaids' gifts. I read the reviews that they were on the small side, but decided to order them anyway. Now that I see them in person, they are very small! I regret not spending the extra $5 a person and getting them the next size larger, which is double the size of this one! Also, the monogramming is not exactly high quality. Looks kinda shabby to be honest.
Cute Bag!

Cute And Affordable
By A Texas Bride-to-Be
from Texas
I love these cute little totes! I used them for my gift bag for my bridesmaids. I had them monogrammed with just the first letter of their names, and they look better than the picture! They are small, but they are equivalent to the size of a small gift bag, so it's perfect for stuffing! I loaded my bridesmaids up with a bottle of wine, jewelry, lotion, and a make up bag, and it all fit nicely and cutely in this little tote! [...]All in all, I would definitely recommend this tote for you!
Great Bridesmaid goody bag
By Jake's Angel
from Madison, WI
I bought these for my bridesmaid's. I love it. I'm glad I read the reviews about it being small, think gift bag size for a smaller gift. I am going to stuff it full of stuff, but I thought it was super cute, and an alright price, WHEN its on SALE. :-)
Cute and Simple
By Janna
from Prattville, AL
I ordered three bags with the "monogram serif" option with initials. If I had to do it again, I wouldn't have gone with this monogrammed option just because the letters weren't appropriately spaced/centered. The initials were too far away from or too close to the middle initial. One bag was sent to me with the wrong bag and thread colors. I didn't worry about sending the two other bags back because the spacing on the letters would probably not have gotten any better. I have worked with embroidery/monogramming, and I'm sure these are done by a machine, not a person running a machine. For the money, these were worth the buy.

Looked like a bargain & perfect fit for a wedding day emergency kit!
It was o.k.
By Jennifer
from Elizabethtown, KY
There was a poor selection of colors for this product. Upon receipt of the product I thought it was smaller then I thought. It will work, but was hoping it for a little bigger.
Cute gift, but coloring is way off
By MG
from Burnsville, MN
Overall, I am happy with the quality of the tote. I bought them as bridesmaid gifts, and am planning on filling them with items that are personal to each bridesmaid as well as items they can use on the wedding day. The personalized stitching is great and the totes feel like they are made to last. I ordered the "hot pink" color for the bag, which is the part that I am most disappointed about. The color that is on the website is very far from true to the color of the straps on the tote. I understand that there is usually a difference in the coloring on your monitor to what you get, but this is a drastic difference. The pink on the website is a very bold, bright pink. The pink that is actually on the totes is a bubblegum/Pepto Bismol color. Don't let this stop you from ordering the tote in general though, because it is a nice item. Just don't order the hot pink color.

Excellent for smaller BM gifts!!
By Emily
from Chicago, IL
I just received my bags yesterday and I am thrilled with the result! Based on other reviews on here, some brides said their bags arrived with faded colors, but I did not experience this. The colors are vibrant, the monograms are correct, and mixing colors (bag color and monogram color) and having one solid color for both monogram and bag both look great! If you look at the size of the bag in the description and understand that you're not getting a huge tote, you won't be disappointed. They are the perfect size for holding a pair of flip-flops, bottle of water, make-up tote or other small things my BM's will need the day of. If you're considering purchasing these, they are a wonderful value on sale. I would wait to purchase these when they are on sale, as I've seen them on sale 3 times within the last 6 weeks.
Perfect Bridesmaids Gift-Not too Small
By JMH
from St. Cloud
I love these bags! Was a little worried they would be too small. They are actually the perfect size for what i wanted. I chose to only have their first initial stitched on the bag and it looks awesome. Wish I would've ordered more!
