maid of honor

I am having 3 bridesmaids in my wedding party. I have had a really hard time deciding between 2 of them as to who i want to ask to be my maid of honor. I am extremely close with both of them, but i finally decided. I don't want the other's feelings to be hurt. I was trying to think of something special that she can do to let her know that she is just as important. Any ideas?

I think just having been asked to be a part of the bridal party is enough to let them know how well you think of them. If you don't think they get that then TELL them...and thank them...and show them!

Dear Maid of Honor,

You also could ask both of them to be honor attendants. They would split the duties and act as one. This is becoming more common.

Congratulations!

Don't worry! All three of your friends will know already they are special to you by being asked to be your bridesmaids.
