Ahhhh.... welp, you won't do much better than this lens. Unless you want to swing for the 18-35 1.8. That is a real gem of a lens.

There really wasn't that much noise at 3200. The k-5ii does really well with this. It just decreases sharpness as apposed to 800 and below which in my opinion is where the k-5, k-5ii, and k-5iis shine.
If you are indoors in a modestly lit room for weddings and such, you can expect the following settings GENERALLY.
ISO: 800-1600
Shutter: 80-120
f2.8 - f4
I think the 17-50 2.8 will supply the quality and sharpness you need for wedding work. Obviously these base settings are subjective as every venu and situation is different. Even if you have to push your gear like I did in the concert photos, I think you will come out with some wonderful shots. If you want to drop the ISO even more, I would highly suggest you take some cash and buy a flash or a few flashes and put them on light stands with wireless tirggers. This will probably get you better results than spending extra money on other more expensive lenses.

I personally want to buy this trigger and 3 flashes from Cactus. You can set flash groups and flash power remotely from your trigger and fire them independently or together. You place these around your dance floor or around the reception hall and get to work.
NOTE: If you already have some flash gear, you can just buy additional transceivers and they will act as a remote control on your current flash gear. Pretty cool!
