Some brides have two or three close
friends or sisters and find it difficult if not impossible to select only ONE
Maid or Matron of Honor. What's the solution?
Have two or even three women as your Maids or
Matrons-of-Honor!
Here are a few tips:
-
Try to divide the duties up so
that no one feels left out! For instance, have one hold the ring or your
bouquet during the ceremony and another arrange your gown or you can have
both of them arrange your gown.
-
Try to divide up the duties
before the wedding too, such as who will help with flowers, invitations,
favors, etc. Because everyone is so busy today, your Maids of Honor may find
it helpful to share tasks.
Or, you can have your Maids of Honor share equally in everything. However,
this can sometimes be a more difficult alternative for the bride to manage.
(Three schedules to coordinate instead of two)
-
In your wedding program, list
both or all as Maids or Matrons-of-Honor. Who should be listed first? This
can be done alphabetically or by age.
Some brides also choose to include a few special words in their program
about why you chose more than one.
-
Who escorts both Maids of
Honor back down the aisle after the ceremony? Have the best man escort
one on each arm.
