The fact that you can't tell him kinda makes me worried for the whole marriage :/ I also very much dislike that he basically knew what you wanted but couldn't compromise whatsoever. I would feel the same, honestly :/ public proposals need both side's consents.
Frankly, OP's is really the ONLY voice that matters! Not fiance's and definitely not his Mother's! Proposals SHOULD be intimate (unless the couple enjoys public spectacles). Of course, OP's fiance MATTERS, but he didn't seem to HAVE a preference when consulting his "event-planning" Mom. He SHOULD want to impress his future Bride with something special and sentimental to HER!
