I am getting married December next year and have decided I would like my best friend as my MOH and I would also like my group of 4 girl friends as my bridesmaids. They are from different social groups and have never met. I wanted to dress my MOH in a different colour to the other girls, but I'm not sure if it will look like im singling her out. I don't want her to feel singled out from the other girls, but I also want her to feel special in her role. I'm not sure what to do.

I've been to wedding that the MOH has been in a different style or coloured dress to the BMs I think it would make her stand out as MOH which to me isn't a bad thing. If it's what you want go for it. She might appreciate that your allowing her to be different to BMs then your guests will know she is MOH.

We're in a bit of a similar situation because we're having a best woman so I want to make sure its clear she has a slightly different role. I'm thinking to have her either in the same dress but a different colour, or the same colour but a different dress. I don't think she will feel singled out, but probably special because she is MOH. It may be worth chatting with her and seeing what she would prefer. X

It's common for the MOH to wear a different colour so pele can identify her as the MOH. Maybe ask her first if she would like to be in a different colour or if she would feel more comfortable in the same as the other girls x
Happily married

I agree with Flossie, ask her on her thoughts of it - she might not want it. My MOH wants to wear the same as my 3 BM's so I'm giving her different hair and jewellery etc to maker her feel more special. Plus when it comes to the sit down meal she'll be sat with her new husband instead of being on the top table so my childhood friend will do that instead. I think its personal opinion if shes happy too then i think it would look lovely. xx

It's pretty normal for the maid of honour to wear a different dress, either colour or style. Speak to her about it and see what she'd prefer.
CommentAuthorMrsEmmaP
I am having them all dressed the same but I have seen a lot of wedding where the MOH is dressed slightly different or has different flowers. I would speak to her and see what she would prefer if your not sure x

She says 'I don't mind either way' so I guess the bridesmaids won't mind if I dress her in a slightly different dress :)
