Hey there, all. My wedding is not for another 2 years, but I'm a military bride and would love to get details like this sorted before I deploy. Here's the scoop: My mother is my best friend. There is no other woman that I am closer to. I realize this may be sad/pathetic, but I would really love for my mother to be my matron of honor. Is this too taboo? Has anyone else done anything similar? I asked my mother what she thought and her response was "Can we even do that?" I would have 3 other bridesmaids plus the MOH. My sister being one of them. I'm having a somewhat unconventional wedding already, it's outside, non-denominational and during the fall. I would like to hold on to tradition where I can, but it does mean a lot to me. I've heard horror stories about ceremonies not going well when this is tried and people have said that it's pretty weird and I should make my sis MOH instead, but I want to hear what other brides and family members say. Please help?
