What should MOH wear?

My BM are wearing two different colors "truffle" (dark brown) and "clover" (sage green). I told them they can pick their own dresses but they had to be floor length and I gave each girl her color.

How will anyone know who my MOH is though if they're all wearing 2 different color dresses? I saw some dresses that looked watercolor-ish and incorporate 2 colors, but I can't find any in our shades. Any ideas?

    I think it's totally fine if your MOH wears the same colors as the other girls, but if you're trying to make it so she stands out a bit more, you could pick one color, and if the dress works for it, pay for a sash in the other color.  You could also maybe give her a slightly different bouquet than the BM's.  Otherwise, people will know who she is from your program, if you're doing one, or if she does a speech.  It'll be great no matter what color she's in! : )

    First of all, they'll know because she's the one standing closest to you during the ceremony.  She's the last one down the aisle before you in the processional.

    But secondly, the vast majority of your guests probably couldn't care less which girl is your MOH.  They're at the wedding to see you and your FI.  Your MOH is important to you, but likely not to anyone else.

    This is something I wouldn't lose sleep over.

    I was in the same boat. My BM's wore 2 different colors and I told them which color I wanted them in. My sister/MOH wore a flower in her hair to distinguish her as the MOH. And besides the fact that most people could she was my sister b/c she looks just like me.

    Ditto Trix.  Does it really matter if anyone knows?

    I too agree that there really aren't any rules about this and PPs have given you good ideas. My sister/MOH plans on wearing a black pantsuit (her own choice) and the other BMs will be wearing floor length, black dresses.
