Daybreak spoke to Lise Ravary, columnist and blogger with the Journal de Montral, about the details of Pierre Karl Pladeau and Julie Snyder's wedding that is taking place in Quebec City on Saturday.

Ceremony in 1663 building

The ceremony, which will take place Saturday, will be held inside a historic building in Quebec City.

"It's going to be held in a place called the Muse de l'Amrique francophone, which is inside the old seminary of Quebec City, which was built in 1663 by Monseigneur Laval ...There's a chapel in there. It's not a consecrated chapel anymore so it's not a religious wedding it's a civil wedding," she said.

Quebec City Mayor Rgis Labeaume will be the officiant at the ceremony for the long-time common law partners, who have two children together.

'What are they trying to say?'

Pladeau is expected to make a unique entrance.

"He is going to arrive to the ceremony on a tandem bike a bicycle built for two with his son Thomas," said Ravary.

The 400 guests will be served a vegetarian menu, and Quebec wines with price tags under $20 a bottle.

"What are they trying to say with this? That they are ordinary folks? He is a billionaire and she's a millionaire, and they're serving a $16 wine to make a statement?" Ravary said.

"I don't know if they're trying to send a message... With Pierre Karl Pladeau and Julie Snyder, you never really know when the personal becomes political and when the political becomes personal."

The event is expected tobe a who's who ofQuebec pop culture and politics.

All of the PQ caucus is expected to be in attendance.
