The MOH walks down the aisle before the bride and stands at her side during the ceremony &#8212; adjusting the bridal gown train as needed, holding the groom&#8217;s ring until it&#8217;s time for ring ceremony, holding the bouquet during the exchange of vows and simply being with support and love.<\/p>\n<p>The MOH and the best man are responsible for keeping the wedding day moving along and on time. This includes calming nerves and fixing the hundred little things that inevitably go awry on any special occasion day.<\/p>\n<h2>MOH Specific Duties<\/h2>\n<p>It&#8217;s a big job, but it&#8217;s fun, joyful and one of the most memorable times you&#8217;ll spend with the bride. Enjoy it, own it and you will have helped create one of the most important days in lives of the bridal couple. Typically, the MOH is responsible for several basic wedding tasks.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Help the bride shop for her dress.<\/li>\n<li>Help shop for bridesmaid dresses &#8212; embrace whatever dress the bride selects for her attendants. Remember it&#8217;s the bride&#8217;s day and what she wants, she gets. It&#8217;s just one day and you will look great even if the dress is not &#8220;your color or style.&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>Coordinate bridesmaids for dress fittings. Ensure everyone has their dresses and correct accessories at least one week before the wedding. If the bridesmaids are set at least one week prior to the wedding day, the bride will feel more relaxed.<\/li>\n<li>Alert the bridesmaids to all dates, times and information regarding any pre-wedding events &#8212; from the bridal shower to the bachelorette party.<\/li>\n<li>Assist the bride with any pre-wedding tasks, including making guest favors for the reception to addressing invitations.<\/li>\n<li>Host the bridal shower and make sure all wedding guests know where the bridal couple is registered.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure id=\"attachment_13101\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-13101\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/be5c720298dda69d56e7300f2c6dd6a0.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13101\" alt=\"maid of honor duties\" src=\"http:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/be5c720298dda69d56e7300f2c6dd6a0.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"900\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/be5c720298dda69d56e7300f2c6dd6a0.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/be5c720298dda69d56e7300f2c6dd6a0-533x800.jpg 533w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/be5c720298dda69d56e7300f2c6dd6a0-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/be5c720298dda69d56e7300f2c6dd6a0-500x750.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-13101\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-13101\" alt=\"maid of honor duties\" src=\"http:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/be5c720298dda69d56e7300f2c6dd6a0.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"900\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/be5c720298dda69d56e7300f2c6dd6a0.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/be5c720298dda69d56e7300f2c6dd6a0-533x800.jpg 533w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/be5c720298dda69d56e7300f2c6dd6a0-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/07\/be5c720298dda69d56e7300f2c6dd6a0-500x750.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/noscript><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/rusticweddingchic.com\/farm-style-bridal-session\">Rustic Wedding Chic<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2><\/h2>\n<h2>Emotional Support<\/h2>\n<p>One of the most important roles the maid or matron of honor play is the emotional supporter.
