It's not a legal marriage unless the bridesmaids' dresses have butt bows.

I attended a wedding a few years ago where the bridesmaids had very different body types. One was very tall, one was very short, one was about 7 months pregnant... The bride chose a very simple sleeveless princess-seam dress. It flattered everyone, even the pregnant woman.

My own personal feeling is that, if the bride picks out a specific dress for the bridesmaids (as opposed to telling everyone "go get a red cocktail dress you like" or whatever), it should be something simple, flattering, and something the bridesmaids would be happy to wear again. (My maid of honor is one of my sorority sisters. When another of our sisters got married, we were both invited... and my MOH wore her dress from my wedding )
