How does it work to have two maids of honor and a matron of honor?
Is it possible to have two maids of honor and a matron of honor?I have two best friends who are very dear to me. They would take the clothes off their backs for me. One is married the other is single. I also have a younger sister,who of course is my blood relative and I love her to death.
This is my predicament. I don’t want to leave out anyone so I want two maids of honor, which would be my single best friend and
my sis. I also want a matron of honor who is my married best friend. How does that work when it comes to the groom’s side? Should he have three best men in addition to the groomsmen? With the bridesmaids,I am so confused! Is it too much,too silly? I know it sounds ridiculous but has anyone been in this situation? My family thinks that, rightfully, my sister should be the maid of honor and my married best friend should be the matron of honor. But the truth is, my single friend is the one who has really been there for me through it all. She was the one who really helped me through my breakups and makeups of all my relationships and I don’t want to leave her out. My married best friend lives states away so we just talk by phone here and there; but I always know she has my back.She got married in court.
I would rather that my sister is a bridesmaids rather than my maid of honor. Still, I am stuck because it would upset everyone if my sister was a bridesmaid and I would feel bad. so far, I like the way missygold is thinking
First and foremost CONGRATULATIONS! This is your wedding and if you want 2 maid of honors and a matron it is ok, the groom will still have only one best man but will have to add 2 additional grooms men to accomodate those 2 maid of honors. you can differentiate the matron and the best man by making their clothing slightly different from the rest of the wedding party, as well as the 2 maid of honors and the 2 extra groomsmen can also wear something slightly different also. If you feel you have to give these 2 extra best men names they can be called Jr. Best Men or Best Man I and Best Man II ect. AFTER ALL JR. DOESN’T ALLWAYS MEAN SMALLER OR YOUNGER IT CAN MEAN NEXT IN LINE.
