Hello my maid of honor dropped out she is a sister in law. my in laws and my fiancé and I all had a despite because they didn’t like our no child rule at the wedding and said it was stupid so now we are not on talking terms. My sister in law took to her parents side of course and sent a text saying she was dropping out of the wedding parent, no questions asked. Question: what do I do with my maid of honor spot? Do I fill it was a bridesmaid? Do I leave it empty? Ps my groom also has a best man. Didn’t know if it would be weird to have a best man and no maid of honor….

Choose someone you trust to be next to you.

Since you are so close to your wedding, I would just leave everything as-is. "Promoting" someone might have negative repercussions and you don't actually need someone in the maid of honor role. Just having your bridesmaids next to you is fine.

It is perfectly fine to have uneven bridal parties or to pick and choose what kind of roles you have in your bridal party.
I agree with Maggie - if you appoint a new MOH that person will probably feel like they were B-listed and realistically, there is very little a MOH actively does at the wedding ceremony so it is totally fine not to have one and just rely on your bridesmaids/have them next to you.

Wow, I'm sorry you're going through that. Good for you that you held to your boundaries though, by sticking to your no kids rule. I'm curious, are your in-laws, indulging the sis in law still planning to attend the wedding? I agree with the others that you don't need to fill the role. Just leave everyone as is.

I’m not really sure. There’s a lot of manipulation that goes on with my fiancé and his family and I think that also happens with his other siblings.

Leave the maid of honor spot empty and make sure your other bridesmaids are your closest best friends.

Just have your bridesmaids there. Don’t “fill the spot”. You’ll make that person feel second choice.

I agree with the previous comments- I would just leave the MOH spot empty. There is no necessity to fill that role or to have even sides in the bridal party. If you are worried about the wedding party walking down the aisle, you could have each person walk down individually, the best man walk 2 bridesmaids, or the best man could walk down the aisle with the groom.

I would not worry about it. Plus either adding someone additional to the wedding would be additional stress you don't need. And the MOH sounds manipulative and might change her mind last minute too and cause extra drama. It can be uneven, it happens all the time!
