Okay so my mom really likes this one dress and I think it looks really pretty on her and it doesn't make her look old. My concern is that it's heavily embellished at the top and because her dress is a granite type colors the embellishments stand out a lot. I want her to walk down the aisle with my dad and I but I feel like people's eyes will be drawn to her, whether our guests mean to or not. My second concern is how our dresses will look together in pictures. Am I over reacting and being selfish? I love my mom and I want her to look fabulous. Bless her heart because she's been sooo understanding through this whole thing. She said if I don't want her to wear it she'll find another dress. But we've looked at a lot of places and couldn't find anything else she likes. I guess I'm looking for reassurance that everything will be okay but at the same time I want your honest opinions.
I posted a pic of me in my dress. You can also see it here up close:

And here's my mom's dress:
