Wedding Gown Heirloom

what do you do about a future mother in law making you wear her family heirloom for the wedding?
I am wearing a beautiful chantily lace wedding gown and wearing my great grandmothers pearls with nothing else. My fiance's mother has told her son that I will wear her familys necklace for the ceremony what do I do?
I'm assuming your grandmother's pearls are a necklace (not a bracelet or earrings, etc)? If that's the case, this is very easy. You already have a necklace. Ask her how she feels if you were to carry it instead, perhaps wrap it around the base of your bouquet or something?
I understand - what you wear on this day of all days should be 100% your choice. If she was asking to to carry a handkerchief or something, I'd say just humor her, it's not worth anyone having their feelings hurt. But if there is any way that you can incorporate her family heirloom without compromising the look you're going for, I think you should try.
If that won't work - just stand your ground, decline politely, and be as nice as possible about it. She's just excited about her son's big day and wants to be part of things. I'm sure her heart is in the right place even if her manners aren't!
