Speech

I am a bit unsure of what to do in the current position I am in... I just asked my soon to be sister-in-law to be my maid of honor... I know she will be able to be there for me the entire time and help me with everything, however I have only recently started to be close with her and I know her speech will be very vague and likely more about my fiance than me.. I am wanting to ask my bridesmaid who I have known half my life to write the speech instead... I want to know if people think this is okay to do so, or if I should just stick to the maid of honor to write the speech.

    Lindsey and Melissa are right! I think if you just ask your bridesmaid your MOH might be hurt

    Hey Shanice! Welcome to the community! I'm so happy you're asking for our opinion Smiley heart I agree with the lovely laides in here. It could be a good idea to include them both! Or maybe have them say the speech together? Smiley smile Do they know each other well enough?

    I'm so happy to hear you're having bridesmaids! Did you start dress shopping with them? That could be a fun thing to do together! Bridesmaids Accessories to Mix & Match

    Do your bridesmaids all know each other?

    How many bridesmaids will you have? Have many already know each other? Smiley smile

    I agree with Lindsey! I see nothing wrong with asking both to say a few words. I would ask them to keep things short, because when speeches go on too long people do lose interest, no matter how heartfelt they are.

    Could you not do both? Smiley smile I know some people get bored with the speeches but if you ask both to keep it on the shorter end you can hear from both of them!
