The traditions of being surrounded by bridesmaids during a wedding takes  its origins from ancient times, when people believed in evil spirits. The bride was surrounded by look alike girls that were dressed all the same to fool demons and prevent them from taking away the bride. Over time, it has evolved into a more \u00ab helping \u00bb position, the bride had too many things to think about on her big day, so the bridesmaids are there to help and ease the pressure. Even as late as the 19th century, the belief that evil spirits could place curses on the bride was still widespread. If you look at  Victorian wedding photographs, it can take quite awhile to pick out who the bride actually is in those old portraits!<\/p>\n
