Wedding Party

Maids and Matrons

Ok so my two best friends are my only attendants instead of a large group of girls anyway my recently married friend I chose as the Matron of Honor. Should I give the title of Maid of Honor to the other friend or just keep her as a bridesmaid? She is just as involved as a MOH but is it alright to list her as such on programs and such?

    Whichever way you want to do it is fine. If you equally close to them, then by all means make them both MOHs. Just please don't give titles based on how much planning and helping they will do (because that is all optional).

  • its not they are equally close the only reason I made one Matron of Honor is because I was the MOH in her wedding and I felt obligated in a sense. But its not about what theyre doing at all.

    Well, wedding aren't tit-for-tat, so don't feel obligated. She should feel very honored that she is one of only two attendants. Like I said though, whichever way you want to do it is fine.

  • Might as well have a maid and a matron, especially if they are contributing fairly equally to your wedding.
  • If they're equally close to you, go for it...MOH (whether maid or matron) should be your absolute closest friend. If you have two closest friends, they can both have that title.
  • It's just a stupid title.  If it's really important to them, keep it.  If it's not, do whatever you think is right.  But really it only matters to the WP--the guests really don't care, especially if they don't know her, and will always assume that the person standing closest to the bride is the only MOH.
