Yes,I think she will attend. She also attended Madeleine´s 30th birthday this year.

Whereas Sofia didn't.
As Chris is RC I wonder will he convert to Lutheranism or perhaps there's no need for him to do so?
Haven't they already said that he will not convert? It is only people in the line of succession that need to be Lutheran, not their spouses. Queens Desiree and Josefina were both RC.
The Marshal of the Realm was asked: Christopher O'Neill is a Catholic. Will he have to convert to Protestantism before marrying Princess Madeleine?
And the Marshal answered: No, he won't have to convert.

But if he wants to convert, it is his own decision.
I wonder what music they'll have...
Hopefully they will avoid the Disneyesque song at the end of the wedding like V & D had at theirs. That was the only part of their wedding that I really disliked. It would perhaps have been appropriate at the wedding concert, but at the actual wedding it was a pretty awful IMO.
Even if Chris doesn't convert, will they have to raise their children Lutheran?
I won't call you crazy at all because I have the same feeling. Either before Madeleine's wedding or directly afterwards we will get a nice little engagement announcement. And if you look at that link over at RoyalDish.com some users have already put the Cameo Tiara on Sofia's head. Watch here: http://royaldish.com/avs/avatar_1603.jpg
I doubt that Sofia Hellqvist will ever be allowed to wear the Cameo tiara, neither at her wedding to Carl Philip (if there is a wedding at all) nor at any other event.
Even if she is created a princess, she will never be "royal" enough to wear anything above the Laurelwreth tiara from Prince Bertil's estate. This tiara will apparently go to Carl Philip when Lillian passes away.
Personally, I would not be the slightest bit sad to 'not be allowed' to wear that awful cameo tiara. It's my absolute least favorite piece of royal jewelry, period!I doubt that Sofia Hellqvist will ever be allowed to wear the Cameo tiara, neither at her wedding to Carl Philip (if there is a wedding at all) nor at any other event.

Not necessarily. The wedding of the King's youngest sister Princess Christina included both elements - the cortège as well as the ride in the barge Vasaorden -, and I would say that at least the carriage ride is a given.If the wedding will be held in Stockholm, I think that the cortege route will be shorter than at Victoria's and Daniel's wedding (if there is a cortege at all) and the Vasaorden will not be used.
This article on the Swedish Royal Court page, Prinsessan Christina och Herr Tord Magnuson - Sveriges Kungahus [NS4 version] . doesn't mention anything about a ride in the Vasaorden, but there was a boat trip from Stockholm to Drottningholm Castle for Christina and Tord. Maybe Madeleine will do something similar.The wedding of the King's youngest sister Princess Christina included both elements - the cortège as well as the ride in the barge Vasaorden -, and I would say that at least the carriage ride is a given.
Do you think that today's announcement in the UK will effect the date of Madeline's wedding? I can't imagine that Madeline would want to risk her wedding being overshadowed by the birth of a future British monarch. Then again I could see how she might be happy to have some of the attention deflected away from her wedding day so that she and Cris can have more privacy.
One is a wedding another a birth. How many people will not attend the wedding, because someone has a child. And how to plan? What if it is born early, what if it is born late. Overshadowed. I think she could care less. She is happy. She should be.
