I am very perplexed. The girl who I originally asked to be my matron of honor has not done anything to help with the wedding planning, but my long time friend and bridesmaid has been there for every aspect of the planning. I believe that she is more my matron of honor than the person I have asked. How can I approach it nicely. Can I have 2 matron of honors?

Sure, it's perfectly fine to have 2 matrons of honor. Just have the best man walk them both back down the aisle and be sure that all of the appropriate players (like the DJ and the photographer and the church) know of the change.
If your FIRST matron already thinks shes the ONLY matron you might want to have a "heart - to-heart" with her very soon. Stress the positive rather than the negative by telling her about your close ties to this other woman and that you want them BOTH to fulfill the matron of honor duties. Using that terminology may just wake her up to her responsibility. If not, continue on as planned and strike it up to a life lesson. Not everyone is mature enough to take on responsibility (some don't even KNOW there is responsibility involved) so just enjoy the rest of the wedding planning, reception, honeymoon and all of the wonderful years ahead. Try not to let this affect your relationship with this woman. Top Wedding Questions Forum Moderator - "Write your sorrows in the sand, your blessings in stone".
