I asked my best friend to be my maid of honour the night I got engaged we have known each other for years and had agreed on us being each other's MOH before I even met my husband x

Yes!! I took mine to my many venue open days makes decisions so much easier having another girl with you they are there to help celebrate and organise your day with you and I'm sure they would appreciate it more if you did include them within all the planning x

I think it depends how soon you are going to get married.. if it's 5 years time then I'd hold off until it's all booked. Things can change.
I asked my chief bridesmaid as soon as I got engaged but then did an official like box of gifts to ask them properly once my venue was sorted and I knew it was only a year away.

Yep, Id already had agonising wait of five days to tell my maid of honour I was engaged, so couldn't wait any longer to ask Jen Go for it!

Yep absolutely! Given that I didn't live in the same country at the time, my matron of honour went with my h2b to view venues for me!

Yes, I asked mine as soon as I got engaged but they pretty much already knew as we've discussed it for years. I then made them all a card when we booked the venue with the date a place.
