Hello Everyone,

I have 3 of my closest friends in my wedding party. I have my best friend from high school who i would love to be the Matron of honor but also my other friend i have gotten super close to these last couple of years. She knows alot more of the wedding planning side of it all. Is it weird if they are Co - Matron of honor and then my last friend is just a bridesmaid or is it insulting to them? Should they all just be named Bridesmaids? I also would like to know how to word on my Bridesmaid proposal box.

Option 1 - All Bridesmaids

Option 2 - Co Matron of Honor & A Bridesmaid.

If you were to word co matrons of honor i don't think you put the co before it. my bff sent me a bridesmaid proposal box and it just said will you be my matron of honor? it doesn't have co- before it even though there's also another matron of honor

Personally I’d either have them all as bridesmaids, or 1 maid of honor and 2 bridesmaids. I feel like having 2 maids of honor and 1 bridesmaid is a bit like ranking the bridesmaid as lower than the other 2? Like it’s different if you only have 1 maid of honor, or if you have 2 maids of honor and 4 other bridesmaids or something. I feel like 2 maids of honor and 1 bridesmaid just makes it very clear to the bridesmaid that she’s ranked as #3 out of 3. Perhaps I’m overthinking but it could be a little off putting to her.

I was thinking the same thing as Gen. Since you have a smaller bridal party, I would do 1 MOH and 2 bridesmaids or all 3 as bridesmaids. Also, it isn't really a requirement that the MOH be the one who helps with the wedding planning. If anyone offers, regardless of their title or even status as a bridal party member, you can take them up on the help and suggestions.

I had a similar situation. I did not want to single out any of my friends, as I love them all he same. I decided to just have bridal party members. It worked out just fine for me.

My gut also leans towards either all three as bridesmaids or just your high school best friend as your matron of honor!
With a small bridal party all three will be really active in all parts of your wedding anyway - and I've certainly taken on way more than my fair share of the wedding work even when I'm not the maid or matron of honor! If you like weddings and party planning things, you'll be helpful and involved not matter what. ❤️ For example - two of my bridesmaids (and not my maid or matron of honor) were the ones who planned my bachelorette party!
