We're planning our wedding party. FH has his 3 picked out and knows who his BM will be. I'm having a harder time with MOH title! Is it strange to have no MOH or have 2 co-MOH because 1 of them are out of state? Has anyone done this? I was the out of state friends' MOH and know how tricky it was to coordinate our schedules even though I considered it an immense honor to be hers! For my other best friend I was in her wedding party as a BM. What to do? I've got some time to figure it out but want to get it solidified in my head soon. Thanks for any help!

It is fine to have no MOH or more than one MOH. However if you only have 3 people in your bridal party then I would only have 1 MOH since it might hurt one girl's feelings to have 2 MOHs and leave out the other girl.
I had 3 BMs and no MOH because I didn't want to choose one over the other. They all worked together to plan the shower and the bachelorette party.
Ultimately, the MOH should be chosen based on how near and dear they are to you, not on what they can do for you.

Thanks for your thoughts! How about making all of then MOH's? Lol! I'm an older bride with no siblings and my friendships are most important to me. I don't need them to "do stuff" for me, I just care that my dearest people are standing next to me on the day 😊

How about having all of them as bridesmaids?

That's exactly what I was thinking. It's a tough call, I don't want to hurt any feelings of course.

I definitely understand! Giving all of them the same title essentially eliminates hurt feelings

I had two bridesmaids and no MOH. They both helped out with planning and shared responsibilities the day of. With smaller parties, I also worried different titles would lead to hurt feelings.

I was in a bridal party with myself and another girl. It just happened to work out that she was married and I wasn't at the time. She was Matron of Honor and I was Maid of Honor.

Now that's perfect! I'm the last one to get married (late bloomer! Lol!) so I would be back to the same thing I was thinking with "maids of honor"! I think I'm going to either do all BM or 1 MOH with 2 BM...

I am having 4 bridesmaids, no MOH. Didn’t think it was fair to “pick a favorite.” It has worked out because they have been able to work together to plan bachelorette and bridal shower.
