Maid of Honor Decision

Realistically anyone can do it. I know that anytime I've been a bridesmaid I've worked with the other bridesmaids and maid of honor to plan something. Once when I was a bridesmaid my friend who's older sister was the maid of honor kind of took the reins and left us out except for the fact that we just showed up. But on the upside she kind of paid for everything so I was okay not be included in that hahaha. It doesn't have to be the maid of honor the Bridesmaids can also help plan that and mostly when I've been a bride it's been the maid of honor and the Bridesmaids that come up with something. I will say you can also have a say in what you would like to do especially if you are thinking to do like a weekend getaway or something.

Honestly the only duty a bridesmaid or maid of honor has is to wear the dress that is agreed upon and stand up at the alter with you. No one is required to host any parties or anything like that unless they choose to. While it is nice to want one, they aren't a necessity. Your choice for maid of honor should be based on who you are the closest to not who can do more for you.

Anyone who offers can host these events. That could be your maid of honor, anyone else, or no one.

There aren't any duties, so choose whoever you're closest to for your MOH

And no one says you can only have one!

No. My other bridesmaids planned my bachelorette

MOH and BM's have no "duties". Anyone who wants to can offer to throw you a shower or bachelorette - these are not parties you throw for yourself. If no one offers - you don't get them.
