I've never heard of a bridesmatron. I don't like the term matron anyway. . . it sounds like an old lady. Just because you're married, you're not old. I dunno, maybe I'm crazy.
I've never heard of a bridesmatron, but my married sister specifically requested NOT to be identified as the matron of honor for the same reasons MissMelissaB pointed out.
I usually hear "Maid of Honor" and not matron of honor. I think Maid of honor sounds a lot better.
I didn't know about Matron of honor until recently, so I definitly haven't heard the other one. My sister has also asked not to be referred to as a Matron of Honor for the same reasons.
I have never heard of bridesmatron, but I'll have a maid of honor and a matron of honor for our wedding since I couldn't just pick one!
I've never heard bridesmatron. Two of my BM were married, but I called them Bridesmaids in the program. I think I've only heard of Matron of Honor when the MOH is married.
No such term... matron was supposed to be a respect thing (since the married maid was (assuming, of course) older than the unmarried ones). I think it's sweet that your friend wanted your opinion on how to be addressed :)
Ahhh, oracle, that makes sense. I'll let her know so she can stop worrying about it!
We have a maid of honor and a dude of honor. I'm pretty sure the DOH does not want to be addressed as "matron."
I have a Maid of Honor, a Maid of Dishonor, a Maid of Crisis Control and a Maid of DIY Projects. They are all getting special name tags and gifts with their titles. :)
I had a question about interchanging the titles of maid of honor and matron of honor because you can find so much more things for a maid than matron. I was surprised at how many people said they'd prefer to be called a maid than matron regardless if they were married because Matron sounded so old. So, I definitely don't think your friend has to worry. I'd say it is whatever you prefer. :)
@Grumpybear722 - I got her some LAMB perfume, a bottle of "Bitch" wine (if you haven't had it, I highly recommend. It is a bold, delicious Grenache. And the label and title say it all) and a piece of vintage jewelry. I also got her a tote bag on which I had each of their nicknames printed, along with the chorus to our favorite songs. I'm kinda loving the personalized touches. It feels like we all belong to a secret girls club now! :)
Here it is, it is DELICIOUS. My FI is a wine buyer and I made him order a case of it as gifts for bridal attendants.

I'm in my friend's wedding next year and she was in mine in June. We were talking today about how excited I am to be her bridesmaid and she freaked out, wondering if she was supposed to call me a 'bridesmatron' since I am married now. I cracked up and assured her bridesmaid would be fine and I had never heard of anyone referred to as a bridesmatron before...but then I started wondering why. Not that that's what I'd want to be called but it seems pretty common for people to call a married MOH a Matron of Honor so why not a differentiation for the maids? Has anyone ever heard of someone using the term bridesmatron?
