Many people may have been wondering what the hype is to be a maid of honour. We have seen ladies battling for the position on Mzansi Magic’s reality sensation Battle of the Bridesmaids.
Apart from being the head of the bride’s squad, the maid of honour often shares a unique relationship with the bride. Being chosen as a maid of honour has privileges and responsibilities that can be attested by the challenges that they engage in before being chosen.
In episode 2 of the show, we saw two potential maids of honour Dumile and Mbali going against each other on a cookout, to gain points. Others may think those were challenges to win, but being a maid of honour means you might have to look out for such events on the wedding day.
Perks of being a maid of honour:
You wear a unique dress: While all the bridesmaids wear the same design, as a maid of honour you get to choose your design from the rest of the bridesmaids.
Speech: You get to give a speech on the wedding day and share happy moments you had with the bride to everyone in attendance.
Your role: The maid of honour stands next to the bride at the altar, marking her role as a pillar of support.
Stolen moments: In important meetings, you are always included. You share a bond with the bride that is second to none.
