Best Answer

Traditionally, the best man is a man, not a woman.

However, it's your wedding, so you can do whatever you want. There's no law stating that best men have to be men. Although, if you are getting married in a conservative church or synagogue, it would be best to ask the church/synagogue's officials for approval.

Actually, according to the Related Link below, women have been serving as the best man more and more frequently nowadays!
