You know, i could see Archleone as smug enough to show....

Mac get an invite?

Eb killed Harry because of his rage over his relationship with Thomas. Unless Eb gets therapy over the next year, I don't see him being fine with a wedding.

Mac will probably cater.

Michael would have everyone over to his backyard for a cookout. Burgers and beer. And remind anyone who may think of having too many - there are angels ON THE ROOF watching you....

I could see strippers showing up in the backyard and everyone assumes it was Thomas, but it turns out Bob ordered them online.  ;D

BrainFireBob:
Lara is Thomas's mother figure, in addition to big sister and partner in the Oblivion War.

I see him going the "last naked woman you'll ever see" route and being bad at it.

I don't think she's going to go out of her way to antagonize anyone. I think the existence of the alliance will be enough. And honestly, I'm not even sure she'll attend. I could easily see her letting Lea attend her godson's wedding, which would mean she'd be at the Gates.

--- End quote ---

She won't antagonize, but she doesn't take disrespect.

And running this kind of alliance through a secretive laid-back affair without Mab's presence would also cast doubt on the strength of the alliance. Does Mab really mean it, or is she discarding Harry by passing him to Lara? If she shows, it's clear, but if she avoids it...

Of course that presupposes she really means it; she sent some mixed messages in my mind - similar to getting Molly sent to a party to blow things open, only for Lea to basically remark 'blowing it up' was predicted... so sending Molly to organize this gig for Harry, that's basically Mab saying 'I want this blown open spectacularly, probably to pay Lara back for imprisoning those dewdrop faeries'.

morriswalters:
The story is shadowing Margaret LeFey's. Outlawed by the Council, driven close to the Fey, accused of breaking the First Law of Magic. And now expected to produce a child to cement an alliance. The child would bind him. I have no opinion in how that ends in Twelve Months other then he will get snatched before they consummate their vows.

Conspiracy Theorist:
What better way to check in on Harry without being seen to overly worried about the one Warlock Nuclear Power they just pissed off. Besides they have got to be worried what everyone else is up to in Chicago.

This will be very public, which means Harry’s inopportune disappearance will be a major diplomatic incident.

There is nothing they can do to Harry directly at the event itself. They would however do a diplomatic snub, the Merlin himself would not attend, he would send a Senior Council Member but one who would be a coded message to all and sundry, The Black Staff. Sending McCoy to watch his grandson marry a vampire sends a message to the rest of the Senior Council, and as this is the Merlin his third reason would be if McCoy’s temper got the better of him and led to a duel against Mab, or better yet Harry this might solve either or both problems permanently. Besides his wedding present would be a cheap and nasty toaster which will last all of 5 seconds in Harry’s presence before bursting into flames.

The White Council will immediately get the blame on Harry’s disappearance so everyone will be daggers drawn at their delegation (Likely Eb, Listens, Martha Liberty and Carlos, with the Gatekeeper as a Wedding-crasher/Gatecrasher, and this will last the entirety of Harry’s absence (24 hours I bet)
