Need some advice here. I am having a microwedding in Las Vegas on the first day of fall: 09-22-22. The ceremony is being held at Red Rock Canyon at sunset; very rustic, desert wedding, in front of a mountain. The bridal party is only 6 people: bride, groom, FOTB, MOTB, son of the groom, and grandmother of the bride.
My mom, MOTB, wants to wear a navy blue dress with bright fuchsia florals. She gave me 4 dress choices and I green lighted all of them except the floral one. I don't feel it is appropriate for the setting plus I will not know what my bouquet will look like until the day of the wedding. We hired an all-inclusive, elopement style wedding planner; one of the down falls is they pick out everything so even though you send them inspiration photos, you truly don't know what you're getting until you're at your wedding.
Anyway, I explained this to my mom, MOTB, and she lost it on me, saying that the florals are for her. I really don't feel like I have to budge on this one point and strongly feel her dress will clash with my bouquet and everyone else in the bridal party (everyone in the bridal party is wearing solid neutrals). I've been so flexible letting everyone choose their outfits, etc, and I don't know how to navigate this with my mom. Any advice??
