I don't know if this will help but there times when my machine will not go over multiple seams. Especially where they join . My trick is to put a jean jumper behind the needle put the lever down to hold it in place. Then I sew over that area until my presser foot clears that joint, usually just a few stitches. I don't know how this would work for free motion quilting on DSM however great for stitch in the ditch and grid quilting.

That's what happened to me, made a double sided quilt, each side with lots of fabric, and it's too heavy, wanted it for a summer covers, but will have to wait for the fall, it's too heavy!

This sounds like quite the undertaking. You don't say whether you plan to send to Long Arm quilter or do it on home machine or hand quilt As a long arm quilter, I would be concerned about 2 things--seams lined up and causing machine "jumps" and also lining up the front/back so that they align. When you put a quilt on the rollers on long arm, there is always going to be little difference in alignment--that and the fact that the quilting process draws up bat and backing, will make it hard to keep the back centered.
You also don't say when this needs to be done by--remember you are actually going to be doing two large quilts by Christmas?? Maybe do the wedding quilt now and next year a Christmas quilt?
