I've got 28-70L, 85mm f/1.8 for portraits and 70-200. What else should I get?

I want to get one UWA lens, like 16-35L or 12-24 sigma... What else? 35L? Seems like too much money for same focal range lens and a lil faster f stop.. 35mm f/2? have that covered with my 28-70...

Maybe 50mm f/1.4? Not too much $$ and fast, but maybe to close to 85mm?

Just thinking outloud... Please chime in if you have something! Thanks!

PS: I'm shooting mainly wedding/portraits!

17-40.

Great colors and every time I've used one I've loved it. My boss had a 5dmk2 and it took some awesome shots.

I'd go for the 16-35L mkll. Nothing like an L. You should know that.
