Two thoughts on the timing of Mab's wedding announcement.
morriswalters:
Had Lara been the Winter Lady Carlos would have died a virgin. While sex is one way to kill it doesn't seem to be the only way for Whites.

How could a whampire survive for the (potentially) hundreds of years between her taking the Winter Lady mantle and her replacing Mab?

Hypothetical daughter is not really a Whamp until she is no longer a virgin - see.. Inari, was her name? and Irwin Pounder's gf

Yes & no. Hypothetically if she got stuck with the mantle, I think Lara probably does have the self-discipline to keep to strictly non-reproductive stuff that wouldn't trigger the mantle's self-protection functions.
That's still enough for a whampire to live on if they're doing enough of it, but feeding in smaller bites is clearly less efficient for them. She still could kill in other ways with an active effort and enough time to devote to it, but she's unlikely to get so carried away in the act as to do that.
Arjan:
Or the mantle would just like drive away or even destroy the demon as unwanted influence. It is much stronger.
morriswalters:
The bit about Carlos was tongue in cheek. He would not have involved himself with Lara.
