Mayor Regis Labeaume will officiate the ceremony in a 17th-century building and home of the historic Musee de l'Amerique francophone, a museum dedicated to francophone culture in North America.

Past premiers Pauline Marois and Bernard Landry are scheduled to attend the ceremony, which begins at 5:15 p.m. eastern.<

Other likely guests include Bloc Quebecois Leader Gilles Duceppe, Montreal Mayor Denis Coderre and most of the PQ caucus.

Singer Celine Dion couldn't make the nuptials, but will send a special message.

Snyder is expected to wear three separate dresses and will arrive in a Tesla electric car, while Peladeau will travel by tandem bike along with his son, Thomas.
