Need Title of Honor for Special Wedding Helper

What Title Can I Bestow on My Special Friend?

LSB Headshot - Wedlok.JPG

Dear Rev. Laurie Sue,

I have a question of etiquette. I am planning my second wedding at age 48 to a wonderful man my age. We opted for a small intimate wedding of 40 people or less of close family and friends. Later we will have a garden party for everyone. We will have an outdoor wedding, with a dinner reception inside with dancing.

Because this is a small affair, I am having only one attendant, the maid of honor which will be my sister. I have a dear friend that I would also love to include, however we don't want to enlarge the bridal party to include more groomsmen. My dear friend is fine with that and has volunteered to be a coordinator of sorts to make sure everyone is where they need to be etc. This is a big job, though I will have everything planned to the details, and will give her the list of what needs to happen when.

Though she will not be "walking down the isle" her role is important and I wish to give her a befitting title. Some ideas are: Honor Attendant, Bride's Hostess of Ceremonies, Bride's Goddess Director, Goddess of Honor (though would this go to the maid of honor?). What are you suggestions?

-Blessings, v

Hi V,

Sounds like a great idea to give her a special title. Here are a few:

Goddess-in-Chief

Goddess-in-Charge

Wedding Gatekeeper

Bridal Gatekeeper

Chief Attendant

Blessings, Rev. Laurie Sue
