So what exactly does being the MOH mean? We’ve tackled that question for you and prepared a handy list of all of the major Maid of Honor duties.

First Things First…What is a Maid of Honor?

Similar to the role of best man, the MOH is the "chief" bridesmaid.

Being appointed MOH means you’re basically the leader of all bridesmaids. This means you’re taking the lead on all the plans – from the dress appointments to the bachelorette party.

1. Be the Leader

The bride may opt to have her bridal party accompany her to salon appointments as she searches for her perfect dress.

 2. Support Her During Wedding Dress Shopping

Though tradition mainly has the bride’s mother or mother-in-law throwing the bridal shower, the Maid of Honor duties here include helping the host with whatever she may need.

3. Assist with Planning the Shower

Being the MOH also means you’re in charge of planning the bachelorette party. Just remember, this is the bride’s party – not yours.

4. Take Charge of Planning the Bachelorette Party

From DIY projects like crafting wedding favors or stuffing welcome bags for guests, she’ll undoubtedly call you when she needs an extra hand.

5. Be Her Right-Hand Woman
