What’s the difference between a maid of honor and matron of honor?
There is only one difference. A maid of honor is a woman who is single and not married. A matron of honor is a woman who is married. They both have the same duties and responsibilities, it’s just if they are married or not.



Maid of honor isn’t married. Matron of honor is married.
Simple as

A "maid of honor" is unmarried, where a "matron of honor" is married.

I wasn’t going to answer this cause its the same answer every time but…
Maid=Single, or unmarried
Matron= Married
In the event that you have both a matron and a maid of honor, the maid takes higher (control?) in traditional weddings.
The list goes kinda like this:
Bride
Maid of Honor
Matron of Honor
Bridesmaids
Flowergirls
And so on…
They have the same responsibilities but its the Maid that does the shower and bachelorette parties.

Old English was Maiden of Honor making it easier to understand ….young and unmarried
Matron was the word used for…older, married woman
