MOH for 2nd wedding

arscuore

I'm a little ahead of myself here, since we haven't even really begun to wedding plan, yet.  But I know it will be incredibly small: my parents, my son, and I was hoping my best friend and her girls and husband, a family friend and her husband, and maybe a few of the fiance's friends and their wives.  I'd like to ask my best friend to be my MOH, even though she won't have much to do, but she's not a big fan of my fiance, for completely unfounded reasons.  It's a symbolic gesture, I think, with such a small wedding -- Do I even need to bother?

Input is much appreciated.  Thanks!

Heart to heart conversation is how you start.  A girls dinner out, and a loving inquiry into what makes her not a fan.  Depending on her answer, then decide. 

Of course, if you don't want to have a MOH- you don't have to.  Just check your local regulations as to what is required for a witness.  ~Donna

I have had a tough time with finding a MOH...honestly right now, i have 3 bridesmaids and no MOH because of unforseen circumstances.

I think the above advice is good, ask her and if she has a problem with it, choose someone else.

You do not have to have a wedding party at all, even if you need a witness.

This is my 2nd too.
My daughter who is 10 will be standing in as my bridal party. While my FI boys 15,14,12 and 11. will be standing up with their Dad. While my 2 boys 16 & 13 will be escorting me down the aisle.
It is your choice, who is in your wedding party. We choose our 7 children.
