My best friend is Jewish, and has been prepared to be my maid of honor for years now. My mother just pointed out to me that it may not be allowed in the Catholic faith, to have someone who isn't Catholic standing up for you. Is this true? It will break her heart if she cannot be my MOH (and my heart, too!).

Re: [RisiLeigh] Jewish MOH at Catholic wedding?
[In reply to]
Let not your hearts be troubled! There is no such stipulation. Church canon law does not place any restrictions on bridal attendants. It should be noted that if you are planning to have a wedding mass, non-Catholics will not be permitted to take communion, including any in the wedding party.
Other than that, enjoy your wedding with God's blessing and that of the Church's as well! Kay and Dennis Flowers Authors of Catholic Annulment, Spiritual Healing
