I've read the reason the bridesmaids dress alike and the groomsmen dress alike is that in "olden times" the bridesmaids dressed in the same clothes as the bride, and the groomsmen dressed in the same clothes as the groom so as to confuse any evil spirits who were trying to wreak havoc.

(I think today the evil spirit just inhabit's the bride througout her engagement... right down to the selection of the bridesmaid dresses!)
