The third point of view:
There were a lot of activities going on in Kay's manor. Yes, Isabella had planned to hold her rehearsal dinner there in memory of her biological mother. It sounded pretty stupid but her mother needed to see that her daughter was doing well.
As expected, Reina was trying to keep the triplets on their best behavior while Niklaus was going over the security layout with Emerald. Occasions like this were an opportunity for their enemy to strike and they had to limit the chances of that occurring.
The rehearsal was not as strict as the wedding party and judging from the fact Isabella was a private person, she opted for immediate family members to be in attendance only. Sadly, Spencers were a large family, hence extended families came among and with them their friends as well. So what was supposed to be a simple dinner escalated into a massive celebration.
