The 100L is a great lens, but I prefer the 135L. The 100L has some advantages, being a macro and with IS, but I feel like the 135L can generate better images as a portrait prime. It depends upon how badly you want/need a macro, really. A macro can be quite useful for weddings, but I don't know that it needs to be the same as your portrait primes, you know? Sigma makes a killer 150mm macro as well.

Just using two Canon F2.8 zoom, 24-70L II and 70-200L II on 1 or better 2 bodies that will cover entire event well with excellent IQ.  But those fast-aperture L primes have unique characters such as smoother bokeh and shallower DOF.
