I already own the 35mm F2 and the 16 - 55 F2.8 for the X-T2.

For the purposes of events work, wedding in particular, which of the following would you add to the collection, ignoring price for the moment:

56mm F1.2

90mm F2

50 - 140mm F2.8

And why? Thanks.

Hard to decide between 56 1.2 and 50-140. The bokeh is unrivaled with the 56, so you can really use that. But the 50-140 will cover more bases for you.

90 feels a bit tight for a lot of shots and you'll not want to put it on the camera every time you need it. 50-140 covers a lot of bases.
