Maid of Honor Twice?

Sasha, on February 13, 2018 at 11:28 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 6

Hi everyone,

My fiance and I have all of our wedding party chosen and asked, but I didn't ask anyone to be my maid of honor because I got nervous. Now I really want to ask one of my bridesmaids to be the maid of honor, but I just found out that she was asked to be the maid of honor in another friend's wedding. Is it awkward for me to ask her to be the maid of honor in my wedding as well?

Thanks!

    Its upto you. Sit down with her and talk about it see how she feels.

    Awkward? No. It would always be flattering.

    Just speak to her and see if she has the time to commit to it depending on what you are wanting from the MOH role.

    If you arent expecting anything more for her being a MOH, I dont see how it will affect her. Smiley smile

    Give her the choice if she thinks it would be too much. I was the maid of honor in 4 weddings within 6 months a couple years ago and it was a lot!

    I don’t see why it would be awkward. Ask her! And as long as you follow advice on her to not “require” certain tasks of your bridal party there should be no reason she should be overwhelmed by the two roles.

    I don’t think it matters if she is a MOH in another wedding. I don’t think it will be awkward. If anything, she’ll be flattered.

    it sounds like you had no problem asking your bridesmaids. I’m not trying to be rude but is there a reason you were so “nervous” to ask this person?

    I agree - give her the choice, and express that you completely understand if she can't do both (and mean it sincerely). Unless your wedding is the same date, which it doesn't seem it is, I would think she'd still be honored!
