I have kind of a weird situation. My older sister is my MOH, but she's having a C-section two weeks before the wedding so she's basically coming for the ceremony and pictures and then going home.
My fiance has been suggesting I ask my best friend (who also took over planning the bachelorette) to do the toast at the reception instead, but I feel like I would be asking her to do all the MOH stuff without the actual title.
My oldest friend is coming to the wedding and even though she's not a bridesmaid, I've been thinking of asking her to make a toast instead. We've been friends since we were 13 and I think it would be really special. Would it be totally weird if I asked her to do it?
Also, for the record: this friend is not a bridesmaid because when I was planning my wedding party (pre-pandemic), there was a lot going on in her life: her sister was also getting married, she had just started a company, a family member was seriously ill, and she also lives out of state, so I thought it would be a lot to ask her to be in my wedding as well. She knows how special she is to me.
