Can I have a Matron of Honor, Maid of Honor, AND Man of Honor?

Rachel, on November 15, 2016 at 11:03 AM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 14

I have 3 friends I would like to make my attendants for the wedding. Can they all have these titles instead of Bridesmaid and Bridesman?

    I mean sure, but if everyone is a MOH is it really an honor?

    Sure! They could all be something "of honor" or bridesmaids / bridesman - whatever you want!

    You can do whatever you want but it sounds a little excessive and what is special about it if everyone and their brother gets the title?

    Has anyone done the opposite and had attendants, but no honors?

    Yes, they can all be bridesmaids/men.

    You don't have to have anyone with the "honor" title. If they're your only three, I wouldn't designate any as an honor attendant

    I agree with MrsSki - you diminish the "honor" when there's more than 1. I would just have them all your attendants.

    I just can't rank them. They have all been my friends for equal amounts of time. It's stupid that picking them and titling them is stressing me out.

    It's up to you. I'm personally doing a matron of honor and a maid of honor because my two best friends are not two people I can choose between so I thought it would be easier that way.

    I am actually leaning to not have honorees in our bridal party. The 4 friends I am including are all near and dear to me and I dont appreciate one more than the other.

    If you're stressing about it, just don't have the "of honor" title at all! It essentially accomplishes the same outcome - you won't have to choose. I tend to agree with previous comments that if everyone is honored, no one truly is.

    This is one situation where it only really matters to you. It's your wedding. Calling them all something of honor is basically the same as having all bridesmaids/men. If you feel they would enjoy having "titles" go for it. If it's not goint to make a difference to them, have BM and stop stressing.

    Also, if you haven't asked yet. Wait. You don't need to ask your bridal party until about 6-8 months out. You have time to think it over.
