Wedding Party

Maid of honor let down

I have a huge dilemna and need some sound advice.  some details first.  I am 37, will be 38 when I finally take the walk.  I have a daughter who will be 15 that has been the center of my world since she was born so my obvious decision was to make her my maid of honor. The problem withthis is that my sister and quite a few of my close friends and family say she is too young for this honor. Some of their concerns is that with the wedding being so large, 300+, that she is not going to be able to handle the tasks that are traditional for a MOH to perform and that I will end up having to add them to my already mile long list.  I have tried to explain to everyone that I am not concerned about this but they continue to bring it up and make a big deal out of it.  Now my daughter is starting to feel that she is the cause of stress and disagreements and has started saying that maybe I should have someone else do it.  I am not wanting to fight and argue with anyone about this issue and when it comes right down to it, I dont plan on changing my mind.  So, any advice as to what I can say that will not only stop the constant doubters but also make my daughter feel comfortable in her position as MOH?
