I specifically chose this dress with one of my bridesmaids in mind. She was raised Muslim in the middle East where it is traditional to cover a woman's body fully. She then moved to the US with her mother at 8 years old and shortly after that was converted to Christianity. Although her religious views have changed, she still dresses more modest than the modern woman. No skirts above her ankle and shirts that cover her cleavage. I respect her modesty and chose this dress so she would feel comfortable. When I showed her she complained that it was too relieving. HELP! I need advice on what to do. I love the dress but want her to be in my wedding too.

Unfortunately I can't save and upload a picture of the dress because the website won't allow me to, but here is a link to the bridesmaid dress which will be Lapis: http://www.davidsbridal.com/Product_Chiffon-and-Charmeuse-Dress-with-Rounded-Neckline-F12732_Bridal-Party-Bridesmaids-All-Bridesmaid-Dresses

    Let her wear a shrug. When it comes down to it, are you gonna be friends with the matching BM dresses of your dreams after the wedding? Plan things not to have a picture perfect wedding, but to have a wedding whose effect on your life you'll be happy with after the wedding is done and over with. Will you be happier after the pictures if she's in them or if all your BMs are wearing the same exact outfit?
