			hahaha.. the rainbow weddings of the 70's!  Every bridesmaid was in a different pastel color of the same dress.  My cousin Linda had a wedding like that!  And the guys wore brown tuxes with ties and cummerbund to match the dress of the woman they stood up with. HIDEOUS! 
 
I think the idea of matching gowns for bridesmaids serves a couple purposes.  It is easy to pick out the members of the bridal party and it looks nicer in photos.  What if they all chose colors that really clashed with each other?  And, you have to find flowers that would look good with each woman's dress too.  Sounds like it would be a pain.
