Maid of honour

Natasha, 21 March, 2021 at 12:26 Posted on Planning 0 16
Hi everyone. Has anyone had or having more than one maid of honour? I’ve always said I’d have my best friend but I’m really close to my big sister and I can’t bring myself to choose one or the other ?

    Totally fine! My sister and my best friend were my MOH at my wedding. Just make sure you give a clear idea of the "who does what" aspect so they can easily work together!

    Thank you very much ladies ? it’s so hard to make a decision out of the 2! They get on really well so the last thing I want to do is cause any friction between them ♥️

    I have this exact issue! In the end, I decided to put family first and my best friend totally understands, I call her the 'Lead Bridesmaid' haha! My bestie and my sister will plan the hen and do most of the tasks together, my bridesmaids will essentially turn up and look pretty! I only have one sister and we are really close. As much as I love my bestie, my sister has been there from BIRTH! ? So I feel like she does deserve the 'honour' title, but my bestie deserves just as much involvement. Good luck!

    There's no reason you can't have both, but if you really only want to have one maybe consider who knows you best out of the two of them. Then when it comes to wedding planning consistently include both of them equally, and when it comes to the hen do get them both together to arrange something extra special for you!

    My partner is having 3 best men because he can’t choose and is close to them all! I agree that it’s your day and you should do what makes you happy ?

    I couldn't choose between my two best friends so I'm just having two bridesmaids instead. I don't think the title really matters, as long as they know they're important to you and your big day!

    Go for it. I couldn't choose between my two best friends so have a man and maid of honour.

    Have both! Just make sure they both know what they are doing if you split responsibilities in case they tread on each other’s toes. I was one of two maids of honour and it was a disaster! The other girl was really helpful to start with as we planned the hen do together. Eventually she lost interest and left it all to me. Even on the day she wasn’t bothered in helping the bride get ready. They ended up falling out and they used to be best friends Smiley sad
