Maid and Matron of Honor

Original post by ape and rog

Can anyone help me, this is my first post, we haven't really started much planning or even set a date but my mother approached me the other day saying you're sister is dying to know who you're going to have as your MOH. We plan on having a small wedding along with a small wedding party. I'm definitely going to ask my sister to be my MOH, but I also want my bestest friend to be my matron of honor rather than just a bridesmaid. I was her MOH and not that I think i owe it to her, but it's what I want. My mother is giving me a hard time about haveing a maid and a matron. How does anyone else feel about this? Help me please.

i did the same exact thing - doing the same... i couldn't not ask my sister, but i couldn't imagine not having my friend there too. i was her MOH and it was such a special thing - i want her to be that part of my life for me too!
i'm not having a BP either/

In my opinion... its YOUR wedding..
There is NOTHING wrong with having both!
If thats what YOU want and thats what YOU are happy with, go for it!
Its not uncommon... People do it all the time...
Stick to what will make you happy on your wedding day.. Its your day, your memories...



Completely agree



Same here. It is an honor for both of the ladies you choose.

I say have both. I had a Maid and Matron of Honor in my bridal party and that was it....I was so happy to have them both standing next to me while I was exchanging vows....Having a Maid/Matron of Honor is becoming a common practice now.

Always remember this is your wedding...and many people will try to tell you 'what is the correct way to do things'....make sure to stand your ground...and don't let anyone talk you out things that you want for your wedding...you will regret...

Good Luck
