It\u2019s not very traditional for a mother to be in a maid-of-honor. But I\u2019ve been thinking of having my mom as my maid-of-honor, because she\u2019s literally my best friend and she has always been there with advice and a caring heart. Would it be wrong to have my mom be a maid-of-honor? Or should it be close friends? \u2014 Nicole<\/strong><\/div>\n

This is a fairly easy question to answer. There\u2019s only one rule when it come to picking the person who will stand next to you on your big day \u2014 ready for it?The Rule: Your Maid (or Matron of Honor) should be someone who you are close to,<\/strong> someone you trust, and someone you know you will be able to turn to for support in the future as well.<\/p>\n

One suggestion I\u2019d have, though, is to arrange for your mother to wear a different color or style then the rest of the bridesmaids (if you have more). This will help separate your mother from the other bridesmaids, so that she maintains a place of extra honor: after all \u2014 she\u2019s more then just a Maid of Honor!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
