What's in a name? Well, sometimes quite a bit is in a title. So, technically single friends in the wedding party are your bridesmaids, but then what do you call married friends who stand up with you – bridesmatrons? Yuck. Attendants? Boring. Honorary bridefriends?

When you have to put it all in print on a program, it's good to give some thought to what to call your attendants. Here, brides at kvetch.indiebride.com toss out all of their suggestions for titling the wedding party, from the traditional to Arch Minion, Groomsmaiden, and Agent of Awesome. One creative bride gives each friend a different title – Maid of Good Sense, Maid of Adventure, etc. Before you set it in type, talk to your attendants about how they would like to see their title. And remember, a maid by any other name is still your friend.
