Maid of Honor Dress Clash?

sparkleztheklown · June 2010

Hello ladies. I wanted some opinions. My bridal party is only 3 people (two girls and a guy) and I wanted to know if I should have my MOH wear a different sort of dress than the other bridesmaid. She asked me if she was gonna wear a different dress and I had never heard of it before. What are your thoughts and ides?

All of my girls wore different dresses. If you're ok with it then I don't see why not. Let her wear a style she's comfortable in.

Mine all wore different dresses.

Some BM's worry about the style, since body types differ so much. The popular trend these days seems to be same color, different style. Sometimes same style, different color, or same color, but different shades
But it's really up to you and your BMs.

I personally prefer same color, different styles, but that's just what's popular among me and my friends, lol.

I had originaly planned on same color, different dresses but all of my girls fell in love with the same dress (I know, weird). I am giving my MOH a slightly bigger bouquet which will look the same as the other girls but also have a few hocus pocus roses which are used in my bouquet.

I'm a fan of it, particularly if the BMs have very different body shapes or like different styles. My requirements were that the dresses be the same color, designer, fabric and length. PIB of the dresses, but I think the look turned out to be pretty cohesive while still letting the WP members look like themselves.

I didn't do anything different for the MOH, but if you want to, go ahead.

It's pretty common (even before the trend of everybody in a different dress) for the MOH to be a little different. Either a similar but different dress in the same color, a different shade of the same color, a different sash, whatever.

I had 3 (1 MOH, 2 BMs) and I put everybody in the same dress.

I actually don't mind everybody in the same color, but different dresses. The only reason I did all matching was because my 2 sisters never would have picked dresses on their own (1 was the MOH), and had my mom been left to do the shopping (The most likely scenario), she would have just bought 2 of the same dress ... and I really didn't want my other girl (DH's sister) to feel like I'd excluded her.

I've been to as many weddings where the MOH wears a different dress as I have to weddings where they all wore the same dress. It's just as common as not. If the MOH has strong feelings either way, since she's the one who has to wear it and pay for it, I'd let her pick.

She can but doesn't have to.
