Parador De Granada

I was recently presented with opportunity to travel to Spain with a good friend and wow, I am so glad that I did. My one-week adventure in Madrid and later Barcelona was one that I will never forget. I couldn’t help but fall in love with the people, culture and architecture. Not to mention the amazing tapas and wine!

I arrived in Madrid on a brisk but sunny Sunday morning, hoping that I might get a glimpse of a Bride and Groom departing a church. I meandered through small plaza’s ringing with church bells, but to my disappointment, no weddings. However, during the trip I did get to see some beautiful wedding dresses at a international leading bridal group, as well speak to some locals about a few Spanish wedding traditions.

So what exactly is a wedding in Spain like? I decided to do a little research and put together a dream destination wedding in Granada.

I got an email the other day from a maid of honor, who is actually a “co- maid of honor.”   Let’s call her MOH1.  MOH1 has helped plan some weddings for her other friends, and therefore her BFF has asked her to be an MOH.  MOH1 and MOH2 (the other co Maid of Honor) recently went to a venue meeting and a dress shop together and MOH1 thinks MOH2 is crazy!  MOH1 is frustrated and thinks the bride should put only one of them in charge. Here is MOH”s question:

Have you ever worked with two maids of honor? and has it ever worked? My friend actually told me that she wanted me in charge because her other friend is drifty and wants to spends tons (where as im organized and thifty). What are your thoughts? I almost want to quit before I start because of this crazy MOH.
