Yes. It would technically be matron of honor but she can definitely do it.

Why would she automatically be a matron? A matron is a married woman, not a mother.

Of course your mother can be your MOH if you want her to be.

Yea, that's fine. IF she is married then it would technically be called matron of honor. If not, then maid. I'm not saying her mother can't be. It's just the title. Literally the only difference.

Sheessh, haha I get what you are saying 😊 but yes! She can most defiantly be a “matron/maid” of honor!

My FH is having his grandpa as his best man. There isn't a right or wrong to who you pick as your MOH or BM!
