1 Matron of Honor and 2 Maids of Honor

LesCam

Please help!!!! I love all my bridesmaids, but can't make them all Maids of Honor. I have one Matron of Honor (I was her MOH) and 2 Maids of Honor (1 girl is my best friends since we were babies and the other is my second closest friend). What order do they stand in and what order do I put on the programs? I feel like Matron should go first, plus I was her MOH; but I know my 1st MOH might be offended if she's not first....HELP!!!!

Whoa. How many BMs do you have (including your MOHs), total? You don't have to make your Matron go first just because you were her MOH, it's not a "tit for tat" type of deal. This is all water under the bridge now, but having more than two MOHs is really diluting the honor. Being a bridesmaid is plenty honor enough. I did my MOH separately on the program, but did my BMs alphabetically. Put your MOHs alphabetically in their own column.

I'd pick something arbitrary like height or age so it doesn't look like you're choosing any one MOH as more important than the other.DH was co-BM for BIL's wedding and there were two MsOH.  The siblings stood closest to the couple and the friend stood next to the sibling.

Do it in alphabetical or age order if you want to keep it arbitrary. First MOH needs to get over it if she's not first. It's not a popularity contest.

oh and FYI we did rock paper sizzors for our walking order

I'd do all bridesmaids and no MOH if I were you, but oh well.Make it arbitrary, so no one has hurt feelings.

Hey Les,I am doing the same thing!!! I saw the post and I was like "Yay, I'm not the only one!" haha.  My sister is my Matron of Honor (standing next to me)  then my 2 best girlfriends are my maids of honor, because honestly I didn't want to choose, they are both soo important to me.  So they will be next to my sister.  Then I have 3 more bridesmaids.  I did regret it a little bit, thinking it stinks to them that they aren't the only MOH of all of them understood and I know are fine with it now.  I hope it all works out!My problem is who gives the speech at the wedding?  I want my 2 best friends to give it because they have been through everything in my life, you know kindergarten thru college, and still best friends.  I just hope my sister doesnt get offended!

Alphabetical? Birthdays? My BMs went down in a random order they came up with literally as they started walking.

I would list the Matron of Honor first and then the Maids of Honor simply because there are two of them. As for the poster wondering about speeches, I went to a wedding and the co-maids of honor did their speech together. If your two are close, I would suggest that, and make sure your sister is the one who gets to sign the marriage license. That way they all have "their thing"
