Mith, I think you should reread that section in Morgoth's Ring on Elvish marriage. I don't think an elf would be ahead of ceremony. And if Mith and Pio did the quiet, eloping-sort of marriage that Tolkien describes as an option-- meaning, that the conjugal act constitutes the marriage ceremony-- they would have announced it (I think at the latest, the next day) and Daisy would have lost her roommate anyway. Mith and Pio would already be married and there'd be no need for further ceremony.
