CO MsOH OR JUST BMs

For my BP I am having just my 2 sisters.  I get along with both of them equally well and they are both married so I can do MAID and MATRON.  The only difference is one lives close by and the other lives about 3 hours away.  I don't want to hurt either of their feelings by distinguishing one above the other.  I am not sure what the protocol is as far as having both be MOH or can they just be BMs and I won't have an MOH.  Any input would be appreciated.  Thanks!!

    Either both can be MsOH or both cna be BMs, Both scenarios are perfectly acceptable and its up to you. My sisters are my only WP. One is Maid and the other Matron, but you could still have 2 Matrons of Honor.

    If they are both married, they would both be matron.  Either both being matron or both being a BM would work.  You could just call them attendants or something else, as well.

    Your closest friend should be the MOH. Closest emotionally, not necessarily geographically. It makes zero difference that one sister lives three hours away ... you don't pick a MOH based on who's most available to help you with things.

    I personally think it's a very good idea to have two MatronsOH. Or call them both Maids of Honor if they are uncomfortable with the "Matron" title (even though it simply means "married," not "old farty hag"). Or call them both "bridesmaids."

    Or, if you are just wanting to give people titles for the program, you could list all the bridal party members under the same category:

    You could have them both be Matrons of Honor and then divide the duties. Have one carry your FI wedding ring and stand next to you during the ceremony, then have the other sign the documents as your witness. Then they can both co-host your bridal shower, bach. party, etc.

    If you can't choose between them, do co-MOH.  Where they live should be no factor in the equation since they'll both be there at the wedding, which is all that matters.

    Thanks so much.  Those are great ideas.  I think I might just call them both attendants and then have one stand next to me during the wedding and have the other sign the licence.  That way they are both included.
