I am a vegan and am getting married. Your opinion is needed?

Vegan Cupcakes

My finance and have both been vegan for almost two years now (I’ve been vegetarian for several years). We would like to serve health vegan treats at our reception. We will have veggie trays, hummus, fruit trays, breads with assorted spreads a few things to be decided and of course some sort of vegan cake (either fancy cupcakes on a tiered tray or a traditional looking wedding cake). So I was visiting my mom today and she said this I know its your wedding, and you can do what ever you want, but I think that you should have normal cake in addition to your vagen (as she like to say it) cake. She thinks I’m being unreasonable and inhospitable in not offering cake that is made with dairy and eggs. I don’t see it that way. I am not going to be offering gross food. My local coop makes wonderful cakes. Beautiful and taste and I’m not compromising my beliefs by buying foods that are made with animal products. My finance and I are paying for this all by ourselves by the way.
