    You have a long time before you need to officially ask anyone. Take your time and consider what you really want

    Also if one of your sister's is married you could always choose a maid of honor and a matron of honor! But don't stress over it yet, you have plenty of time to sit back and consider what you want to do!

    For me, I have 3 sisters.. 12, 11, and 26. My older sister and I aren't quite close and I already had plans for the younger one. My dilemma was, I have a best friend whose been there forever, but is unreliable so then who do I choose. I gave myself a month roughly to take a step back and see who I was closest to. I chose my friend becca who is actually my fiances best friend and best mans wife. We are extremely close. You have to choose someone who you are close to but who is reliable honest and who will help you through the wedding stress. I've known people who chose there moms before!

    I have two sisters and asked both of them to be MOH because I felt like it was fair/the easiest way to avoid an argument. You shouldn't be asking yet, but is there a reason you only want one? Are you much closer with one or the other?

    I have 4 sisters and we are all very close in age (**** and 36) I decided to ask my best friend so that I didn't hurt any of their feelings. They are all bridesmaids and are perfectly fine with that.

    I'm honestly not even sure if I would ask them to be bridesmaids, they're both very unreliable and they don't really get along with each other. I just don't want to hand hold to have them show up on time on my big day.

    @Samantha I'm not close to my sister, and so I won't be asking her to be MOH. I am asking my best friend of over 20 years to be my MOH. But my sister will br a bridesmaid. Also my wedding is way before yours and I havent even officially asked anyone yet. You have soooooo much time to take a step back and really consider what you want. Plus with your wedding being close to two years out, you have no idea where life will take you in that time

    Take a step back and breath, it will work out, especially if you take your time and really consider what you want. There is no rush!

    My DH has three brothers and skipped designating a best man, just called them all groomsmen to avoid any hurt feelings. Conversely my best friend has two sisters and they all made a deal with each other, sister A was MOH for B, B will be MOH for C, and C will be MOH for A. Maybe one of these ideas will help you avoid hurt feelings.

    I don't have a MOH. I don't really see the point in one.

    Both my sisters are my MOH. Both assumed I'd be asking my best friend Becca to be and were totally floored when I asked them.

    Is there a reason you only want 1? You could always just not even have a designated MOH, ask them all to be bridesmaids and not designate the MOH to anyone.
