Who is your Matron/Maid of Honor/Best Man and why?

I wanted to post a positive, upbeat question, instead of some of the frustrated, whining or complaining questions we sometimes see on here.

So, for this question: Share who you chose as your right hand person for your wedding..(NO full names, just first name and relationship to you IE: Best friend, brother, cousin) and why did you choose them to stand up by you when you marry?

My Matron of Honor Angela is my best friend of 4 years. She and I have been through breakups, makeups, deaths, divorces, panicked midnight phone calls, drunken arguments and every girl problem imaginable. She moved out of state a few years ago, but we have remained close and talk almost every day, and we see each other about twice a year. There is no other person in this world that I would want as my Matron of Honor. I picked out my wedding dress with her, on my last visit to her home…and flew home with my gown in my luggage. And…she custom made my veil/headpiece.

What about you?

    My man of honour is my best friend Daniel. We worked together for a couple of months, not friends, just exchanged hellos and made small talk at work. Then my dad passed away and he was one of the few people at work who didn’t treat me like I had the plague. He let me talk, hugged me when I cried and was there for me no matter what. I was able to return the favour a few months later when he finally, (after years of agonising over it), came out as a gay man. His family wanted nothing to do with him, he was thrown out of his family home with $10.00 in his pocket and he came and slept on my sofa for 3 months until he got himself together. He is now very successful in his chosen career , we have been friends for 7 years and he said yes straight away when I asked him to help me organise my wedding and stand next to me as my man of honour. I am getting a bit of criticism from family for my choice but there is no one else I felt I could ask. He has been there for me during the worst time in my life and now I want him to be there, standing next to me, for one of the most joyful times.
