Any advice on shopping w/ bridesmaids?

Original post by m&m

I am having nightmares about going bridesmaid dress shopping this weekend. I have two bridesmaids who are totally easy going, but my fsil and I have very different taste - and she is super picky. I'm very conservative, and she is super trendy. I asked her to give me some ideas of dresses she likes, but told her that I don't want them to wear strapless (the other two bridesmaids have voiced concerns about them staying up, and I just feel weird asking them to wear a strapless dress in church when I know I would feel uncomfortable - yes, I'm a prude). Every dress that she showed me was strapless and form fitting. I know I can't make everyone happy, but I feel this pressure to make sure everyone is comfortable in the dress...
Ok, I guess this is more of a rant than a question - but any advice would be appreciated as well!

I made the mistake of bringing everyone and it was a complete nightmare. So what I ended up doing was going again with two of the girls and basically emailed the other girls the dress. They all approved and it was a done deal!!!
