I will need faster then f4, this will be used primarily indoor for weddings. I don't plan to use super wide all the time, but there have been times it was needed.
I'd also strongly consider the 20 2.8. It's a better lens than is generally acknowledged around here.
In the far corners it is sharpest when stopped down, but I find this a solid tradeoff in return for minimal distortion and prime lens handling. The "old" problems of vignetting and CA non-issues anymore due to the excellent lens correction tools in DPP and ACR.

the 20-35F2.8L which i got for USD200+ is pretty value for money as well.
Wow, where the heck did you get a 20-35L for that price? Last I checked they are going for around $450-500.
That lens can also be excellent. Edge to edge it is quite sharp except in the extreme corners at 20mm. It does have rather heavy barrel distortion at 20mm and a little CA, as well as some vignetting, but it is a nice lens. One problem is that DPP does not have correction profiles for this lens, so you are left with ACR corrections (which work fine, but are less automatic).
